Chapter 201: Heading North
Black and white gloves, one side of the palm is pitch-black rubber, the texture is unknown, and a golden dragon winds in the palm of the hand, ready to soar.
Long Tao stared at his left hand, the aperture at the base of his middle finger had turned milky white, and the small blue vortex was spinning rapidly in it, and streams of extremely pure special energy kept converging towards it, and he could clearly feel that the aperture was gradually becoming condensed.
Different from the previous two times, at this moment Long Tao could clearly perceive the power of the origin, his spiritual power seemed to spread throughout the world through the aperture, and the glove in his left hand seemed to have become the core of the world.
This is an unprecedented and strange feeling, being in the Rain-Covered Realm, but clearly feeling that you can hold the entire Rain-Covered Realm in the palm of your hand.
Long Tao suddenly realized that the urging use of this glove was only more dependent on the host's spiritual power.
"Uncle, it's almost time to Poyang Lake." Linglong's voice sounded through the hatch.
"Got it." Long Tao thought about it, put away his gloves, got up and walked out.
Pushing open the hatch, Long Tao stood on the side of the board and looked at the bow of the ship.
The big ship is about to sail into a vast and boundless lake.
Poyang Lake is finally back.
Five days ago, Long Tao took the women and the void outside Jinling City and left the capital division.
Xu Ruowu took his family and apprentices and a group of generals to the hermitage that had already been set, and Long Tao took Gu Zixian, Qin Mengyao, Xu Yeyue, Zhuang Qingshuang and a group of wives and concubines to return to Shuangxiu Mansion by boat.
As for Zhen Sushan, Ying Sanhua, Meng Qingqing and other women, Long Tao arranged for them to lead the crowd to Shuntian first and wait for Long Tao to go to the rendezvous.
It is worth mentioning that outside Jinling City, Long Tao actually met Li Chimei.
After this person escaped from the battlefield that day, he sneaked back quietly and came to find Long Tao specifically to find out Lengyan's whereabouts and kill this traitor.
Long Tao knew that with his ability, it would not be difficult to find Lengyan, at most it would take some time, and the main purpose of Li Chimei coming to see him was to show that their side was not hostile to Long Tao, and they would never look for him to avenge Pang Ban, and it was best for everyone to not interfere with the river water from now on, and the two had nothing to do with each other.
At this moment, Long Tao's prestige was known to the world, and no one wanted to set up an enemy who could kill Pang Ban, even the Mongols who had previously regarded Pang Ban as a pillar of the gods.
This is the deterrent effect of power.
It's a pity that when Long Tao promised Gu Zixian, Zhen Sushan and other women, he was already destined to oppose them as Mongolians.
Of course, Long Tao did not turn his face with Li Chimei on the spot, on the contrary, he was happy to be a favor and help him find out Leng Yan's whereabouts, so that he could complete the task as soon as possible and go back to meet Fang Yeyu.
Leng Yan, Long Tao also wants to get rid of this person, and for Shan Yuru, Leng Yan, Hu Weiyong and the like were originally abandoned sons in her hands, and someone is willing to do it for her at this moment, so she is naturally happy to sit back and enjoy it.
"With the chimei skills of Eli, I'm afraid that I have already fled to the outside of the fortress with a strict head." Long Tao looked at the land line that was gradually becoming clear on the lake in the distance.
Shuangxiu Mansion is finally back.
The reluctant couple led people to greet them on the shore, and everyone was very happy to see each other.
Long Tao returned with the invincible name of killing Pang Ban, and the whole of the Shuangxiu Mansion was very proud, and even the servants who guarded the door were all energetic and arrogant.
"When the son-in-law was away, the second elder seemed to have put a lot of effort into it." Long Tao found that the manpower in the mansion was obviously more than doubled, and he knew that the reluctant couple must have recruited troops and horses.
"Seeing that there is hope for the restoration of the country, we naturally have to prepare early." Gu Ningqing said with a smile.
Reluctantly asked, "What is the arrangement of the virtuous son-in-law for this matter?" ”
Long Tao said in a deep voice: "I am ready to let Zixian raise the baby here first, the second elder can continue to recruit good hands and accumulate wealth and food, and the younger son-in-law will go to the north to take care of everything, and after Zixian gives birth to a child and settles everything, it is time for us to recover the peerless country." ”
"You're going north?"
"That's right." Long Tao nodded and said: "King Yan and Lan Yu have countless elite soldiers, all of them can fight well, both of them are dead at this moment, their belongings naturally can't be wasted, coordinate the border defenders in the north, and when we send troops to return to the country, we can be invincible!" ”
Reluctantly nodded: "The arrangement of the virtuous son-in-law is really very appropriate!" He turned his head and pulled Gu Ningqing's slender hand, and sighed: "Ningqing, you can finally return to your homeland!" ”
Everyone gathered in the Shuangxiu Mansion for three days.
Three days later, Qin Mengyao set off to return to Cihang Jingzhai, and Xuyeyue and Zhuang Qingshuang went to see it together.
Han Bicui returned to Changsha to rectify her Danqing faction, preparing to select good players from the faction as a help for the restoration of the Peerless Kingdom.
Long Tao went to Shuntian Mansion alone to take over the stall left by Zhu Di.
Everyone agreed that before Gu Zixian gave birth, they would return to the Shuangxiu Mansion to gather.
After Zhu Di's death, his domain was temporarily under the rule of Xie Tingshi, the governor of Shandong, who was set up by King Yan.
In addition, she also specially asked Yun Wei to seal Long Tao as the Duke of Anguo, and the mansion was located in Beiping, King Yan's old nest, and sent a generation of Confucian Fang Xiaoru, who had already supported Yun Wei, to the town, so that his fame could naturally better stabilize people's hearts.
Long Tao was happy to accept the Duke of Anguo, and the government and the opposition immediately knew that he was on Yun Wei's side, thinking of his prestige, some people who originally had their own small calculations also made their positions stand and supported the new emperor.
In this favorable tailwind situation, Long Tao came to Beiping.
King Yan's mansion has become Anguo Mansion, Zhen Sushan, Ying Sanhua and other women have long been waiting in the mansion, to Long Tao's surprise, Bai Fanghua and Chen Yuzhen were also sent by Shan Yuru.
That night was naturally a carnival all night, and Long Tao took the opportunity to play a provocative trick and took the Jurchen princess Meng Qingqing into his stay.
The Jurchens are good at war, and they will be a good helper to fight the Mongols outside the Saiwai in the future, and Meng Qingqing, this woman, is superior in knowledge, and she knows that cooperating with the Ming will bring great benefits to their Jurchen people.
On the second day, Long Tao began to incorporate the remaining forces of King Yan.
The first thing to encompass is the talents from all walks of life left by Zhu Di, including the unparalleled wisdom of the monk Daoyan.
For different people, Long Tao uses different means, to put it simply, it is just coercion and temptation.
Those who can know what is righteous and move to benefit will lobby well, and there are some who are insidious and repetitive by nature, Long Tao is too lazy to talk to them, a few life and death charms can naturally make them obediently die.
To put it simply, Long Tao was busy with these complicated things for two months before he brought all the old troops of King Yan, including his elite soldiers, under his command, and Shuntianfu could be said to be under his complete control.
With a group of capable people, Long Tao gathered Lan Yu's old department again, and more than four months had passed at this time.
During this period, Long Tao also sneaked back to Goguryeo with Yingsanhua, assassinated dignitaries, contacted the old department of the Wuhua Dynasty, provoked civil strife in the Zhengde Dynasty, and prepared to help her restore the country.
More than seven months have passed in a hurry, and after the northern affairs have been basically dealt with, Long Tao rushed back to Poyang Lake and stayed by Gu Zixian's side to give birth with peace of mind.
Although this period of time was peaceful, Long Tao's mood became even more nervous, after all, he was going to be a father.
Although it is in the rain world, for Long Tao, these worlds are the same as his real world, they are all places where he can enter and leave at any time, leaving many unforgettable experiences.
Half a month later, Qin Mengyao, Jin Bingyun, Xuyeyue, and Zhuang Qingshuang returned together, and Long Tao and Zhongmei quietly waited for the day when Gu Zixian was about to give birth in the Shuangxiu Mansion.
