After the meal, Wu Feng was alone in the room and pondered. This is a very quiet place, because it is located outside the city, the business of this inn is not too good, and it has been closed in recent years, the businessmen who go out to do goods, and the travelers who are walking outside have all returned home to prepare for the Spring Festival, so this inn is even more deserted, this Wufeng and his group of dozens of people immediately chartered the entire inn, and the boss was happy to smile, and quickly let Xiao Er cheer up his spirits, serve seriously, and be very attentive. Fortunately, the food in this inn tastes good, and Wufeng is also satisfied.

I am afraid that I will not be able to help myself when I enter Yanjing, what do I do, what do the ministers of the court and the central government, and the princes think? What does His Majesty the Emperor think? Wu Feng, who was originally very confident, felt a little uneasy when he entered the city. Don't go into the city and be taken down and become a prisoner, then it would be a mistake. Wu Feng laughed dumbly, fell his head, as if he wanted to throw away this ridiculous idea, thinking that the imperial court would not do such an outrageous thing, even if his power expanded too quickly, but objectively he still made great contributions to the empire, not to mention the high merit, at least it can be said that it is not an exaggeration to protect the family and defend the country and expand the territory.

Out of his own sphere of influence, Wu Feng always feels a little unaccustomed, accustomed to the mentality of being high and self-respecting, and now he suddenly becomes a state of sincerity and benevolence as a knife and I am a fish, especially in a situation where I am not clear about the enemy or me, and I no longer have the feeling of having the initiative, I am afraid that it will be difficult for anyone to adapt for a while. It seems that he is still staying too well in a good situation, and he has not been tempered much, Wu Feng secretly thought to himself, maybe this trip to Yanjing can really exercise his mood and endurance.

The knock on the door of "Tuk Tuk" woke Wu Feng from his contemplation, "My lord, Mr. Gu is here." ”

"Ask him to come in. Wu Feng stood up.

The door was gently pushed open, and a strict figure covered by a thick coat and cloak walked in, and the door squeaked shut, and the visitor made a salute, and then took off his coat and cloak.

"Gu Ji, what danger is there?" Wu Feng patted the person on the shoulder and asked affectionately, "It's been more than two years since you parted, and you still haven't changed anything." ”

A hint of excitement also flashed on Gu Jileng's face, and then disappeared. Wu Feng also knew that his friend and confidant had always been like this, and he didn't care.

"When did you arrive?"

"I'm here at noon, I'd like to see you to understand the situation before entering the city. Wu Feng motioned for him to sit down, sat back in his place, and took a sip of tea.

"Are you safe along the way?"

"It was safe and sound, and I didn't alarm the places along the way. Wu Feng took out an item at random, this is a jade box, "Come, this is for you, a specialty of the Green Sea Swamp, Moyu Poria Cocos, but unfortunately there is only one of these things." ”

"Oh, Moyu Poria?" Gu Ji, who was usually fresh and colorful, also looked moved, he was conceited and knowledgeable, but he had only seen it in books, and he had never seen the real thing.

"Well, I don't know if it's true or not, it looks like a little broad bean, it was given to me by the Celestial Spirit Clan who lived on the edge of the Green Sea Swamp, I don't think they would lie to me, right?" Wu Feng smiled.

Gu Ji gently lifted the lid of the box, and a refreshing fragrance suddenly permeated the whole room, which made people feel refreshed.

Gu Ji carefully observed the inky black and shiny items in the box, and said after a while: "It is indeed genuine, it has been grown for at least three hundred years." ”

"Well, it looks like these Celestial Spirit Clan guys didn't lie to me. Wu Feng quipped.

"My lord, this kind of genius is just right for you, and I can't afford it. Gu Ji closed the lid of the box and solemnly presented it back to Wu Feng.

"I don't need it, you've worked hard in Yanjing, I heard that this move can replenish your brain, so you can eat it, and you can replenish your brain, so as not to decay before you get old." "No striker, no answer.

It is said that this item can generate essence and strengthen the marrow after ordinary people take it, and can rejuvenate the aging and injured internal organs, although it has no effect of reviving the dead, but it has an excellent effect on prolonging life and strengthening the body. ”

"That's better, my body doesn't need these things to be very good, I think you're overly distracted, and your body is weak and needs to be replenished, that's all. Wu Feng waved his hand.

Gu Ji still wanted to refuse, but seeing that Wufeng was already a little impatient, he had to accept it, but he was secretly moved in his heart.

"Okay, let's get down to business, what's the current situation in the imperial court and everywhere?" Wu Feng turned the topic back.

"Your Excellency has already understood the situation in front, the Southern Military Region of the Empire has made a major adjustment, His Majesty the Emperor is really an old man, taking advantage of the defeat of the Fifth and Sixth Army Corps to carry out a major reshuffle of the top management of the Southern Military Region, reappointing a large number of his own cronies, His Royal Highness suffered heavy losses, and was almost completely excluded from the army. Meng Hai, the current commander of the Southern Military Region, Wu Yuanba, the commander of the Fifth Army Corps, and Jin Zhengyang, the commander of the Sixth Army Corps, were all born in the Praetorian Guard system and were all confidants of His Majesty the Emperor. Guji smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"Well, if he doesn't have a little strength, who will be optimistic about him? It's not surprising that he took the opportunity of the third brother's fall to strengthen his own power, but he must have the tacit approval of His Majesty the Emperor. Wu Feng nodded.

"The situation in the south is still dull, the new officials do not seem to have made much progress, and the conflict on the border still does not take much advantage, but fortunately there is no major fighting. The Fourth Army of the Empire had entered the south, and several reading divisions of the Eastern Military Region had also entered the Five Lakes region, but Milan had been defeated in successive battles, and the Mache Khans had taken advantage of the situation to invade the territory of Milan, and the Milanese had lost their will to fight, and it was said that they were already in peace talks with the Mache Khans. However, the rebellion in the Yuejing State that was expected by the DPRK did not take place, and some small resistance was quickly extinguished by the Maqi Khan garrison, and now it is stable, and it seems that the rule of Nali Deguang is really unpopular, so that the Maqi Khan people picked up a big peach. Gugi's words were full of regret.

"If there is no Milan and Yuejing's domestic containment, I'm afraid the battle of the empire will be a little difficult to fight. Wu Feng frowned slightly, thoughtful.

It is said that the frequent presence of the Japanese in the Great Eastern Ocean near the Great Pearl Islands has caused the Milan and Mahad to be very nervous, and they have strengthened their vigilance at sea. Guji said again.

"Oh, this widow is really good at timing, is it a coincidence, or is it related to the Maqi Khan?" Wu Feng asked with a thick eyebrow.

"I haven't found anything involved, but the Japanese people are extremely ambitious, and they have long coveted those islands in the Great Eastern Ocean, I'm afraid it's not just the Great Pearl Islands, but even Treasure Island, Kamchatka Island and the Ryukyu Islands, they also have ambitions, if they weren't still fighting internally, I'm afraid it would have become a big trouble on the eastern sea frontier of the empire, and this has also brought a lot of trouble to the eastern coast of the empire. If given the chance, these hateful widows will never sit idly by. ”

"As far as I know, there is still a certain gap between the shipbuilding technology of the Japanese and the Empire and the Milanese, do they dare to challenge the Empire and the Milanese now?" Wu Feng was a little puzzled.

"Well, there is a certain gap between the shipbuilding technology of the Japanese and the Imperial and Milanese, but in the past two years, the Japanese have also been working hard to narrow these gaps, and I heard that their leader attaches great importance to this aspect. ”

Wu Feng shook his head, "This gap in shipbuilding technology is by no means something that can be achieved overnight in a day or two, it is formed after years of accumulation, unless they get the direct support of the Empire and the Milanese, it is impossible to catch up all at once, and there are ''''''" Thinking of this, Wu Feng's face was a little gloomy.

Guji was also very sensitive, "Do you suspect that they are stealing the technology of the Empire or the Milanese?"

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to improve dramatically all at once. Wu Feng's face became more and more ugly.

"But there is no evidence for this, and no one believes it when it is said. Gu Ji Dao, "The Manchu Dynasty is full of people vying for fame and fortune, where is anyone who cares about these things." ”

Wu Feng was silent for a long time before he said, "Let's not talk about this matter first, what is the situation of the Lin family and the Lang family?"

"There is a rebellion among the ethnic minorities in the Lin family, and the Lin family is now doing their best to quell the rebellion, and they have no time to take care of anything else. Originally, the central government of the empire wanted the Lin family to send troops to assist in the response, but seeing this situation, they had to give up. The Lang family is not unusual. ”

"What does the Imperial Court have to say about my march into Luzon?" Wu Feng finally asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Your Excellency already knows that the last court meeting has already been discussed once, and there is no dispute, so you let your Excellency return to Beijing to report on work. At present, many ministers of the court and the central government have set up the main punishment for the lords, saying that the lords are arrogant and unruly, and act arbitrarily, and despise the authority of His Majesty the Emperor, while among the princes, the eldest prince, the third prince, and the seventh prince all have an ambiguous attitude, and the sixth prince and the ninth prince try their best to defend the lord. By the way, I don't know when the adult offended the thirteenth princess, it is said that she has written to His Majesty the Emperor twice that you are flying and domineering, and you have no king, and asked you to be removed from your post and investigated. Even his own brother, His Highness the Nine, couldn't persuade him. Gu Ji said with a smile, "The thirteen princesses are ranked first among the three famous flowers in Yanjing with their beautiful names, but I didn't expect the adults to pick the flower of Miss Angel and provoke the thirteen princesses, how can this be good?"

Wu Feng scratched his head in confusion, and said puzzledly: "How can there be such a thing? I have never even seen this thirteen princesses, how can I offend him? Is there any mistake? There must be some misunderstanding in this." ”

"Maybe this thirteen princess has a spring heart, and intends to use this method to attract your attention, the adult is not shallow, but you have to be careful Miss Angel Hedong lion roars. The old-fashioned Guji was obviously happy because of Wu Feng's return, and made a rare joke.

Wu Feng laughed, "Guji, it's all this bone eye, you still have the heart to make this kind of joke." ”

"My lord is in my chest, what is there to worry about? The soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it, I believe that there will be no problems for the adults this time. Gu Ji is very optimistic, "His Majesty the Emperor is also very ambiguous, and he has never expressed his attitude positively, which makes it difficult for the ministers below to figure out the holy will."
