Chapter Forty-Three—A Sideways Kick
However, even though he was slightly unhappy in his heart, Li Fu still stood up from the soft couch very naturally, helped the two young men up with a smile, and pretended to be careless and asked in a low voice: "I don't know, the two of you came here at this moment, is it because the current situation has changed? Although I also know that this will be a lot of inconvenience, but we are all Qi people, and we should help each other in a foreign country, right? It's just that the situation is still unclear, and I still need to wait and see for a while before I can determine how to act. ”
In the face of Li Fu's sudden courtesy and this rhetoric, Lu Deng and Xia Liuli couldn't react. According to common sense, Li Fu should first ask the two of them what their purpose was for coming here. I didn't think that Li Fu didn't ask about this, but directly said that now that he is in a foreign country, isn't he ready to help them?
Lu Deng and Xia Liuli glanced at each other, watched Li Fu's body turn back to the soft couch and sat down, and the two smiled bitterly at each other. Xia Liuli quietly used her arm to nu the Li Fu in front of her, and looked at Lu Deng beside her with flashing eyes. Lu Deng smiled wordlessly, Xia Liuli's meaning, why didn't he understand?
So, Lu Deng himself was more helpless, he could only take a step forward, lowered his voice and whispered: "I don't know, does the general need our help now?"
Li Fu looked at the expressions of the two young men, Lu Deng and Xia Liuli, and he already knew that the initiative of the situation was now in his hands. Of course, he doesn't want to directly use these young people, these young people are all talents, and Li Fu is not an ignorant person, and he is very clear about the current situation. The reason for making such a situation is that Lu Deng and Xia Liuli in front of them just want to take the biggest initiative, so as to avoid these young people from not knowing how to advance or retreat like wildflowers that are too popular and easy to break. Li Fu is really confident in this.
Now that his goal has been achieved, Li Fu will no longer continue to embarrass Xia Liuli and Lu Deng, the two young people. It was not too easy for them to return here from Weicheng, and it was something that Li Fu himself was not really willing to do. So, Li Fu said slowly: "Now, since you have gone to Weicheng, you must have learned some inside stories about this continent and even this whole country, right? So, do you know what kind of role our Qi army is playing when we come here?"
This remark was not Li Fu's own idea, but the idea of Qian Rong, a staff member he had recently relied on. Qian Rongcong and Li Fu learned that now that these young people were already here, they had already expected that they would come to look for Li Fu sooner or later. And this is a key opportunity, and if these young people who are very talented and excellent in everything can help their father and son, the probability of success will be much higher. Qian Rong told Li Fu that this trip to the country is directly related to whether they can gain enough popular support now, and if they want to achieve the goal of defeating the feudal country, they must unite the departure from the country on the Xuanling Continent, which Qian Rong clearly told Li Fu that he must not worry about, because the two brothers and sisters Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, plus several other partners, must also be committed to this trip. This point is just left to them to do, and Qian Rong made it clear that what Li Fu needs to do now is to sweep out the troops sent by the feudal state to leave the country.
Lu Deng and Xia Liuli glanced at each other, and when they heard Li Fu's current tone, they realized again that Li Fu was just testing them. So, Lu Deng, who was secretly relieved but didn't dare to speak, stood aside with his hands and continued: "The position we are in now is to unite and leave the country to deal with the feudal country together. However, it is said that the departure from the country must now be neutral. Not only do they want to get the most out of it, but they also want to take the opportunity to eliminate the civil strife in their country. ”
"Oh? As far as I know, hasn't this country been unifying the mainland for a long time? Is there still civil strife now?" Li Fu still really didn't know about this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, if it was really as Lu Deng said, they really had some chances. But Li Fu immediately realized that it was good to leave the country and not go to war, but was it a little unsafe for them to start a war on the land of another country?
Xia Liuli took Li Fu's question and explained: "Actually, general, the contradiction in the country comes from the fact that the Chen family of the royal family and the current monarch do not get along very well. According to an old man we met, the Chen family of the royal family has been ostracized and exiled many times since the reign of the previous monarch. Now that this monarch has not been on the throne for too long, he naturally can't control the ambitions of a part of the Chen family. So, this is the beginning and end of the civil strife. It is rumored that the city where the two siblings are now going is where the royal Chen family is located. Xia Liuli's words have never been many now, but she once again said the most important point.
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Fu, who was sitting on the soft collapse in front of him, was suddenly overjoyed, and he rubbed his hands excitedly. This is indeed a good opportunity, so that they may not only be able to join forces to leave the country to fight the country, but also to expect great things.
Li Fu immediately smiled, and the different color on his face, which was originally slightly puzzled, suddenly disappeared. So, he smiled and asked, "So, since you are here, can you join me to defeat the feudal army? I have been waiting for this day for a long time." Now," Li Fu's expression became more serious and full of confidence, "it's time for us to educate these feudal people who don't know the height of the sky." Lu Deng and Xia Liuli themselves have decided to assist Li Fu, assist him in defeating the feudal army step by step, and never let the feudal state get involved in leaving the country. Now that Li Fu has taken the initiative, it is naturally something that Lu Deng and Xia Liuli can't ask for, that is, their original purpose has been achieved. So, the two brothers and sisters hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "I am willing to share my worries for the general!"
"Okay, good!" Li Fu laughed loudly, and in addition to the gratification, there was more ambition in the laughter. Now, step by step, the big things of their father and son can be expected. Now, Li Fu, who stood up, in addition to a trace of loneliness, was more of a kingly spirit that suddenly appeared on him.
Li Dan and Xia Liuli didn't know what the current situation was, anyway, since they had already decided to assist Li Fu to complete the purpose of their current Qi army. Lu Deng and Xia Liuli will never forget this. As for the other four, this was no longer beyond their reach.
Walking in the familiar camp of the Qi army, listening to the lively sound of Li Fu not far away convening a meeting of general-level officials, Lu Deng and Xia Liuli on the other side were extremely complicated, and they were relieved to look at the Qi army that was now uniformed and uniform. On the other side, the two of them were still unconsciously worried about their four companions who were now missing. Lu Deng even closed his hands and closed his eyes, not knowing what to say there. Even Xia Liuli, who was standing on the side and listening attentively, didn't hear what Lu Deng was talking about
The glimmer of light in the middle of the night fell on the world, although now there is such a new thing as the Xuanling Continent. But aside from the Xuanling Continent, the current Demon Spirit Continent is still so quiet, and the people have experienced the initial excitement and excitement, and now life is calm again. Especially at this time, the Demon Spirit Continent seemed to be asleep and there was no sound. The streets of any city are very quiet, and if you listen carefully, you can hear the wind very clearly. At the end of summer under the clear moonlit night, the current Demon Spirit Continent seemed very peaceful and tranquil. Even, the people on the streets were not visible, and the people were asleep.
In the south of the city, the blue lion flag on the city tower is still fluttering with the wind of the moonlit night, the south gate has long been closed, and there are no other soldiers stationed here except for a few candles burning on the city tower. Because the gate of the city is very strong, it is impossible for ordinary people to enter the city from the outside.
But there was not much time for three swift figures to suddenly appear on the gloomy tower of the city, and these three figures galloped up directly from the bottom of this tower, and their feet stepped on the city wall and ran up all the way quickly, as if such a towering city wall was nothing to these three figures. In a short time, these three figures had successfully completed what was basically difficult for ordinary people to climb to, and they had already appeared above the city tower in an instant.
These three figures are none other than the three young people Shi Lanbo, Sun Hao and Nangong Yun, who were not stranded in Lingcheng with Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan. Originally, these three young people were still in the camp of Qi not far from Li Cheng to follow Li Fu, and when Li Fu left here and led the army to the Xuanling Continent, these three young people had already begun to fulfill their last wish. The fundamental reason is actually that Nangong Yun wants to see the current whereabouts of the sister she is closest to. As a result, Shi Lanbo and Sun Hao didn't want to go directly to the country and the Xuanling Continent recently. In this case, they felt that it was a good thing to come to the Lin family, the only one standing now, to find out. Although the gate of the city was closed in the middle of the night, this was not a very difficult thing for these three young people, they had been practicing light exercises since they were children, and now with some of the ability improvement, it was very easy for these three young people to appear on the tower of the city. There was no one around, Shi Lanbo, Sun Hao and Nangong Yun looked around, found the best place and walked down the city tower.
