Li Chaonian left the lobby of Nanrong Mansion, and when he was about to go to the front of the gate, he saw Nanrong Zhongwei walking out from behind the south wall.

Li Chaonian stopped and saluted: "The eldest son."

Nan Rong Zhongwei looked at the south wall and said, "The ancients are cloudy, don't hit the south wall and don't look back. The so-called south wall is the shadow wall standing inside the gate, and this is it."

Li Chaonian said with a smile: "The eldest prince has something to say, why bother beating around the bush, you might as well say it directly."

"I'm advising the strategists not to go all the way to the dark, but to know how to turn back in time." Nan Rongzhong said coldly, "I can hear every word of the conversation between the counselor and my father in the hall before."

Li Chaonian said: "I know that the eldest prince is hiding in the shadows."

Nan Rongzhong clenched his fists into fists: "The strategist is really wise, with your wisdom, it's a pity to be a strategist in Nanrong's family, why don't you go to the court to be a great strategist?"

Li Chaonian actually said, "If his subordinates had become great strategists, the Nanrong family would have been gone a long time ago."

Nan Rong Zhongwei walked towards Li Chaonian: "Li Chaonian, you are so bold!"

Li Chaonian still had a smile on his face: "My subordinates have always been bold."

Nan Rongzhong glared at Li Chaonian angrily and lowered his voice: "You know that Yuan Kai is my pretence, but you don't break it, and deliberately tout and elevate Yuan Kai, it seems that you really want my father to change his heir."

"Fei Ye......" Li Chaonian put his left hand behind his back, his right hand drooped, and he put on a posture of preparing to make a move, "The eldest prince misunderstood, I only did this for the balance of power within the family, and I don't want your brothers to have infighting."

Nan Rongzhong looked at Li Chaonian's hanging hand, and also knew that Li Chaonian was not afraid of himself, and knew that he was by no means Li Chaonian's opponent, so he had to relax all his body, indicating that he had no intention of making a move.

Nan Rongzhong was no longer nervous, and Li Chaonian also returned to normalcy and became as respectful as usual.

Nan Rongzhong said, "When the advisor said those things to my father, I sounded like I wanted our brothers to fight among themselves."

Li Chaonian said: "The second son is weak, and the eldest son is the heir, and his strength is increasing day by day, and the master will definitely do something that makes the eldest son unhappy because he feels sorry for the younger son. Therefore, even if I transfer the credit of the eldest son to the second son, in fact, isn't everything in the Nanrong family still in the hands of the eldest son? What's more, the eldest prince will inherit the position of ruler in the future, and the subordinates will definitely be loyal to the eldest prince."

Although Li Chaonian's words are reasonable, how could Nan Rongzhongwei be easily persuaded because of this?

Nan Rongzhong diverted the topic: "Now there is another hidden danger for Nan Rong's family."

Li Chaonian asked knowingly, "What are the hidden dangers?"

Nan Rongzhong said, "My nominal nephew, Tang Xiaohao, I'm afraid I don't even know that the strategist, that kid has been playing a bastard for more than ten years."

"Oh?" Li Chaonian pretended to be puzzled, "And this matter? But how could he be a hidden danger?"

Nan Rongzhong looked at Li Chaonian and said, "Strategist, didn't you just say that when I inherit the position of leader, you will be loyal to me? Then you're going to do one thing for me."

Li Chaonian was stunned: "What's the matter?"

Nan Rongzhong said word for word: "Help me kill Tang Xiaohao."

Li Chaonian immediately said, "If the eldest prince really thinks that Tang Xiaohao is so important, why should he kill him? You should do what he likes and find a way to persuade him to be loyal to the Nanrong family."

"I didn't think so, but, according to what I saw in Liang Cheng, that kid is definitely not a person who will surrender to us," Nan Rongzhongwei's expression became grim, "Although he has no ambition, he is nosy, and his so-called sense of justice is too strong, and he ......."

Nan Rongzhong paused for this, and then said, "Too smart."

Li Chaonian deliberately asked, "Is he smarter than the eldest prince?"

Nan Rongzhongwei's eyes were full of murderous aura when he heard this, and he looked at Li Chaonian with a strange smile.

Li Chaonian arched his hand and said: "The eldest prince, I will find a way to test the concubine, if the concubine is really a threat, I will definitely let him die in Rouyuan, if not, I still have to report this matter to the master, because now the head of the Nanrong family is not the eldest prince."

The eldest prince takes care of his health, and his subordinates take their leave."

After that, Li Chaonian bypassed Nan Rongzhongwei and walked towards the gate, and when he walked through the south wall, he deliberately stretched out his hand and patted it, and let out a mocking cold snort in his nose.

Nan Rongzhong took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his chest, this time he almost died in Liangcheng, and most of the plan failed, and this so-called "credit" was also pushed by Li Chaonian to his younger brother.

Still, it doesn't matter. Nan Rong Zhongwei smiled again, because Yuan Kai obeyed me, even if my father really set up Yuan Kai as the heir, Nan Rong's family is still my final say.

After speaking, Nan Rongzhong turned to look at the door of Nanrong Mansion that was slowly closing, and standing outside the door was Li Chaonian, who had just turned to look at him, and Li Chaonian also bowed to Nan Rongzhong, who was standing on the south side of the door.

The husband's ambition and dedication are not long in scheming.

If a person wants to be strong-willed and act according to his own will, he must know how to be thoughtful and resourceful, which is the most long-term way.

Strategist, that's what you taught.

However, at the moment when the gate closed, the right side of the south wall that had been photographed by Li Chaonian before collapsed directly, and when the broken bricks and plaster rolled down to Nan Rongzhongwei's feet, he was shocked into a cold sweat.

If that palm is slapped on himself, I am afraid that he has been broken, and people like Li Chaonian definitely did not come to take refuge because of the power of the Nanrong family, he must have his own purpose.

It's just that whether it is mental, martial arts, or magical power, he has reached the peak. Therefore, Nan Rong not only respects Li Chaonian, but even worships him, and Nan Rong Zhongwei can't do anything with him at all.

The most important thing is that the Nanrong family still doesn't know whether Li Chaonian is still a deacat.

——

The matter of Liangcheng's demon trouble has already spread throughout the court, and Tang Chen, who is the commander of the Iron Guard, naturally knows a thing or two, but he doesn't know the details, although he has sent someone to inquire, but the news brought back is different. All the news said that the Iron Guards and the Tianqian Army had joined forces to defeat the monsters that appeared inexplicably, and there was no mention of the horses and princesses.

Therefore, in addition to stepping up the patrol in the imperial city, Tang Chen could only hope that the group of ironclad guards who escorted King Xi would return, and he would be able to learn the details from his subordinates.

It's just that to Tang Chen's surprise, after hearing that Liang Cheng had an accident, the person in the Tang Mansion who was most concerned about Tang Xiaohao's safety turned out to be Nanrong Wenjun.

Nan Rong Wenjun has always been a member of the Nan Rong family, even if she has long regarded Tang Xiaohao as her own, she can't show it, because doing so will harm the child who once risked his life to find herbs to save herself.

Although Nan Rong Wenjun's way of asking sounded like he wanted Tang Xiaohao to die, Tang Chen always knew his wife and knew that she was inconsistent, but he didn't understand why his wife had quietly changed.

Late at night, Tang Chen stood alone on the Huayuan Gate Pavilion of the Imperial City, looking at the direction of Tiangan Road, and prayed for Tang Xiaohao's safety in his heart.

If something happens to that kid, everything he has done in the past eighteen years will be in vain......

"Grand Commander," Zhu Lu slowly walked up to the attic, "Ma Ji is a natural person, nothing will happen."

Although Zhu Lu usually looks lazy and dull, every time Tang Chen thinks about something, he knows it, after all, this strategist who was assigned to the Iron Guard is also the proud protégé of the great strategist of the previous dynasty.

Tang Chen just nodded slightly, how could he not be worried?

Zhu Lu said again: "The Great Strategist sent me to tell you that the colt is fine, the demon trouble has not even hurt his fur, and the princess is also very safe, but I heard that the colt is going to personally escort Princess Baomeng back to the Rouyuan Tuo Si Department."

"I heard?" Tang Chen was surprised, "How can you hear about such a thing?"

Zhu Lu also looked into the distance and reminded Tang Chen: "There are certain things that can only be known by the emperor."

Tang Chen immediately understood when he heard this, so he had to stop asking.

Zhu Lu looked at Tang Chen and said, "The Liangcheng demon made trouble, many people died, but one in an important position died, and one was missing, and it was Changshi Xue Yun who died, and the missing person was a friend of the commander."

Tang Chen was stunned: "Gu Huaiyi?"

Zhu Lu said, "That's right, ever

He was called Gu Maniac in Jixian Academy, and he was once rumored to be the one who was the candidate for the current Great Strategist, if I remember correctly, when you went on the three expeditions, you were not willing to bring the current Great Strategist, but instead favored him."

Tang Chen was a little unhappy: "What is the purpose of the military advisor to mention the old things at this time? I don't think the Great Strategist is so cautious, and will embarrass me at this time because of the old things, right?"

Zhu Lu smiled, "No, the general misunderstood. Although Gu Huaiyi and I are not friends, we also know each other, and I also recognize his mind and talent, but this person is too crazy, he speaks openly, and he has offended too many people, and the most important thing is that he went to Liangcheng because he was in trouble at the beginning, if the general at that time wanted to find a way, the person who became the Iron Guard Division now should be Gu Huaiyi, not me."

Tang Chen heard this and said, "You also said that although he is talented, he is proud of his talents, and his mouth is open, and the Iron Guard belongs to the forbidden army, if I strongly recommend him to be a military advisor, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Tang Chen was unwilling to entangle this issue with Zhu Lu anymore, and left in a hurry under the pretext that he was going to patrol the city.

After Tang Chen left, Sang Luo walked out of the darkness slowly, and looked at Tang Chen, who led the team to start patrolling, "What are you? Remind him?"

Zhu Lu looked at Sang Luo and said, "You were the one who arranged for Gu Huaiyi to go to Liangcheng in the first place, now that Gu Huaiyi is missing, his whereabouts are unknown, and he doesn't know where to go, I have to make preparations in advance, right?" In case something happens in the future, Tang Chen will remember the conversation between us today, and he will add a so-called non-existent clue to prevent you from setting yourself on fire."

Sang Luo smiled, "Are you overthinking?"

"You laughed," Zhu Lu suddenly became very serious, "If something really happens to Gu Huaiyi, you won't laugh, you know too well how powerful he is, and your laughter means that you know what Gu Huaiyi is going to do, and it may even be arranged by you."

Sang Luo looked directly at Zhu Lu: "Zhu Lu, do you know what your biggest weakness is? It's just that you can't hide things in your heart, and if you are a strategist, you have to learn to see through it and not say it, after so many years, why can't you learn it?"

Zhu Lu was still serious: "Although I don't know what specific arrangements you made at the beginning, I know that Gu Huaiyi and I were both military advisors of the Iron Armor Guard under your arrangement, and one went to Liangcheng as a strategist, and many of the strategists sent to other provinces and cities were arranged by you, and you did this for the layout, although the strategists did not have military power, they could find ways to persuade or control those who had real power."

Sang Luo was unusually calm: "What do you want to say?"

Zhu Lu approached Sang Luo: "I want to remind you to do your duty and don't do stupid things."

Sang Luo smiled: "Zhu Lu, the plan is in the sky, and the success is in the people."

Zhu Lu said word for word: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven."

Sang Luo said, "But the most important thing is to do your best, and to do your best is to do your best." ap.

Zhu Lu asked, "What is the purpose of your best efforts? Is it for yourself?"

Sang Luo still had a smile on his face: "Since you haven't seen through it, it's great, it means that I'm still slightly better than you." Do you remember what the teacher taught us?"

Zhu Lu was puzzled: "Which one?"

Sang Luo looked at the sky full of stars: "Stay in peace, wait for the time of day."

Zhu Lu was still puzzled.

They don't know that now all forces have engraved the words "wait for the time" in their hearts, and they only need a fire to rekindle it.
