Chapter 171: The Empress is Furious

"Disciple, why are you in such a hurry?"

The old eunuch frowned slightly. One must know that the Great Yan Kingdom had a strong foundation. Strictly speaking, the vast and sparsely populated northern border was only a buffer zone against foreign enemies and beast tides, and there were not many cities and densely populated areas.

Therefore, in the eyes of those in higher positions, this is a line of defense. If the line of defense is lost, they can take it back and send people to garrison it again.

He wanted to take advantage of his depth and seize the time to find out the conspiracy behind the scenes, as well as most of the people or forces that could have an impact, so as to eradicate them completely.

"Except for Li Changsheng, no one else has talked to me about the threat posed by the Wu family in Northern Frontier, and the disaster caused by the Senluo Bee Gu was forcibly attributed to the beast tide."

"Has deceiving superiors and subordinates reached such a point?" The old eunuch was shocked. Although he was not dumbfounded, it was still beyond his expectations.

"Master did not disclose the matter of the insect plague, probably because he wanted to save face for the elders and ministers in the court. However, they have been comfortable for too long and think that as long as the insect plague or the beast tide does not harm them, it is not worth giving up the illusion of wonder and peace that they have built over the years."

Jun Jiufeng shook her head with a painful expression.

"According to the news I received, dozens of villages and towns in the north were engulfed by insect plagues. Wherever the plague passed, people and animals turned into bones, and crops and forests became barren land. The affected area is expanding and is gradually moving towards the city."

After saying this, Jun Jiufeng sighed softly. In fact, she had already sworn in her heart that she would never take the initiative to contact Li Changsheng in this life.

She wanted to watch Li Changsheng become a useless person, with remorse and self-blame, losing all her pride and becoming a rat crossing the street, only then could she avenge her hatred.

However, fate played a trick on him. After leaving the imperial capital, Li Changsheng was like a fish entering the sea. He grew up in crisis and took risks alone, becoming a person that even she looked at with admiration.

She couldn't ignore it both morally and logically. Otherwise, if her heart was not right, how could she command the three armies and be a qualified empress?

"Hundreds of thousands of lives are at stake, and a mutiny that could involve high-ranking officers of the Northern Frontier Army is something we cannot just rely on our intuition." The old eunuch understood and was secretly relieved.

The empress showed signs of turning back, becoming less domineering and overbearing, and more compassionate and gentle.

"Xiao Shunzi, bring me the sound transmission Gu."

The old eunuch took the voice transmission Gu, but when he saw Xiao Shunzi's worried expression, his heart sank!

"Godfather, don't hurt me!" Xiao Shunzi muttered, looking at the old man suspiciously.

Brother Li didn't have a good impression of the old eunuch, and often hung up the phone when they didn't agree.

The old eunuch was so angry that he almost vomited blood and was full of resentment.

If this happened in front of the Empress today, something serious would probably happen.

At least I can’t guarantee Xiao Shunzi’s safety.

"Speak up!"

The old eunuch looked calm and composed, but he was actually very scared. He was also afraid that Li Changsheng would hang up the phone directly, which would definitely slap him in the face!

The sound transmission Gu was shaken, and the old eunuch opened his mouth in doubt and doubt: "Li Changsheng, your mental strength has increased again?"

"Senior, you have a keen sense of perception. I admire you, but what does this have to do with you contacting me? Let's talk business."

Li Changsheng's voice sounded from the Feisheng Pavilion. Jun Jiufeng felt her heart tighten slightly, and an inexplicable throbbing sensation surged into her perception, making her unconsciously pay attention to that voice.

The old eunuch saw Jun Jiufeng frowning unconsciously and guessed that his good disciple was unable to get over the hurdle in his heart. He did not like Li Changsheng and did not want to waste time on other conversations.

"Okay, Li, I want to ask you, do you know who is behind the insect plague? Also, what is the current situation in the northern border? Is there a beast tide attacking the northern border defense line?"

After a series of questions were thrown out, the Voice Transmission Gu calmed down for a few breaths.

"I only know the identity of the person behind the scenes, but I don't know the other issues."

The old eunuch was startled. He asked this question mostly because he didn't want to give Li Changsheng a chance to make a clean deal.

As someone who has experienced this and taught two generations of Emperors of the Great Yan Dynasty, I have some experience in handling complex interpersonal relationships. The first step to building closer relationships is always to have more contact.

But contrary to expectations, the final topic was the first one to be answered, but the rest of the incidental information was completely unknown?

Could it be that Li Changsheng had become a deserter? He had abandoned the Yan army and gone to live a carefree life outside the Great Wall?

"Li Changsheng, is this how you repay me? If I had known this, I shouldn't have believed your sweet talk and let you have the opportunity to go to the Northern Frontier to redeem yourself for your crimes."

Jun Jiufeng made her presence known at the right time. Her eyes flashed with anger, as harshly as a neglected wife reprimanding her husband for favoring a concubine.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't think Li Changsheng is that kind of person."

The old eunuch softened his tone and tried to persuade Jun Jiufeng, but his attitude was not very sincere. The old man also wanted to see how much Li Changsheng felt for Jun Jiufeng.

The love poison in the two people's bodies caused two people who should not have had a deep relationship to become in a state where their lives are linked and they live and die together.

This also means that both parties must work together to manage the relationship. One-sided enjoyment and one-sided giving are not the best options.

"I, Li Changsheng, pay my respects to Your Majesty."

The weak cheers fully demonstrated the perfunctory and pretentious attitude.

Jun Jiufeng rolled his eyes in anger.

The old eunuch was also embarrassed and speechless. He relied on the fact that he couldn't make video calls due to the sound transmission Gu and really did whatever he wanted. He didn't even bother to act.

However, the only person in the world who could make the empress roll her eyes in anger was Li Changsheng.

"Humph, considering that you delivered the information in time, I can let you go without pursuing your desertion. But you must return to Ningyuan Army tomorrow, no, before midnight today. I will personally check the military roster. If you don't show up, do you know what will happen?"

Jun Jiufeng displayed the majesty of an empress, and every word she said was extremely oppressive, making people feel powerful even through the voice transmission Gu.

"Your Majesty, I was forced to leave the border because of the military order, and I cannot go back tonight. Moreover, I have just experienced a life-threatening battle, and I urgently need to find a place to recuperate. I don't want to lose my life because of your Majesty's long-distance deployment."

"You..." Jun Jiufeng's eyes were sharp, and he was about to scold.

"Your Majesty, a general is not subject to the king's orders when he is away from home. The situation in the northern border is complicated and full of murderous intentions. Li Changsheng should adapt to the situation and must not take it lightly."

The old eunuch hurriedly interrupted the verbal confrontation between the two and reminded Jun Jiufeng not to forget serious matters because of a dispute over personal feelings.

Jun Jiufeng let out a breath, clenched and unclenched her fists, and the feeling of not being able to control Li Changsheng made her feel uncomfortable.

Li Changsheng's figure flashed through her mind, but this time it gave her a different feeling.

In her eyes, Li Changsheng could never escape the shadow of a playboy.

But just now he argued with reason and expressed his attitude of breaking away without hesitation.

If the old eunuch hadn't spoken up to dissuade her, she would probably have felt the pain of being hung up on.
