Due to the recovery of the empire's military power in the north and west, and the officials from the Duke of the Terocchi to the military affairs department went to the imperial capital many times to ask the empire to provide military assistance to the empire to fight the threat from the Kaman Empire, and to ask the imperial army to assist the Duke of the Terocchi to recover the Jiama area occupied by the Kaman people at the right time. The Imperial Minister of Military Affairs He Zhiqiu also wrote letters many times to call for strong support to the most important friendly neighbors in the northern part of the empire.

Since the beginning of the mainland 694, the empire's military deployment in the west and north has been adjusted. The two main divisions of the Third Legion of the Western Military Region have moved north and stationed not far from the border of the Principal of Terocchi. The Second Legion of the Northern Military Region also has a main division and another independent division directly stationed on the border between Beiyuan County and the Principal of Terocchi, and quickly advance from there, and you can enter the hinterland of the Principal of Terocchi in just one day.

The Kamans were deeply worried about this, because the deployment and adjustment of the empire not only made the Principal of Terocchi completely without any worries, but they had no scruples on their backs. They also made continuous adjustments and gradually began to form a siege against the Kaman occupying forces deep into the Principal of Terocchia Ama City. Fielding in the northwest of Taixuan Prefecture in the west always had a warm attitude, making the three elite divisions in his hands a vital force in this area, making the Kamans restless as if they were thorns on their backs.

This is why the Kaman envoy's journey to the Holy Church, realized the power of the Holy Church. The Kaman, who had a keen sense of smell, was indeed willing to invest. He made such a huge investment at one time, even as the master, he was a little surprised. What's more, these were all before the Holy Church had provided any substantial help to the other party. This only shows that the Kaman had an extremely experienced and profound person in charge, probably the Prime Minister Gomez, known as the "creator of the Iron Blood Policy".

The middle-aged man sat quietly in the carriage and closed his eyes to ponder. The master's letter had already taken a countermeasure. The Kamans were not good ally. Although their current goal was to put the Principality of the Teroc, once they swallowed the Principality of the Teroc, their ambitions for the northern territory of the empire will be exposed immediately, which is also the most troublesome problem for the Holy Church.

Although the alliance can obtain huge arm support at present, it can make the power of the Holy Church a substantial leap, but it will also bring huge negative effects. Once an uprising, can the Holy Church control a large tract of territory in the north of the empire in a short period of time? Will the Kamans take advantage of the fact that the Holy Church has not yet established a stable foothold and take advantage of the situation? With the Kamans' nature, this possibility is too great, and they will never be bound by the so-called treaty agreements. What will the attitude of the Pooles with great strength? Will they have the same thoughts as the Kamans?

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man felt even more stressful. The master had been north for almost two months. Although he had connections, he didn't know the specific purpose of his northward journey. He only vaguely felt that he had to have a relationship with these two major powers in the north, Kaman and Poole. Does the master still have to negotiate face-to-face with the people in power in these two countries?

The middle-aged man shook his head. If that was the case, he would not have to whisper with the special envoy of the Kaman people here. What is the important thing about the master in the past two months? In the letter, the master seemed to be very confident in negotiating with the Kaman people and the Poole people, but a year ago, it seemed that the master was still worried that the Kaman people and the Poole people were too strong compared to the Holy Church, and was worried that they would break their promises after achieving a preliminary victory in the Holy Church, but there was no such concern in this letter. There must be some reason here. It seems that it will be clear only when the master comes back.

To be on the safe side, the middle-aged man immediately changed his residence after sending off the envoy of Kaman. In his opinion, although the possibility of the Kaman betraying himself now is almost impossible, it is not in line with his nature to let his opponents control his whereabouts. He would rather spend more effort.

Looking at the dark night outside the window, the young man's mind fell to the south again. It seems that the people in the south have been active very strongly recently, otherwise the junior brother would not have had any news for so long. However, he is full of confidence in his junior brother. With his years of experience and extraordinary abilities, he believes that he can handle affairs in the south well. Qiankun Dao?! What kind of organization is this? Is it a secret group that aims to overthrow the rule of the Tanghe Empire like the Holy Church or the spokesperson of some foreign forces? I really want to see these people, and can compete with the forces of the Holy Church in the south!

The fact that Wufeng was personally given a banquet by His Majesty the Emperor immediately caused an uproar in the court. Even several concubines attended the banquet. This was a rare encounter in many years. Now even a fool has figured out the emperor's wishes, and another son-in-law is about to emerge! And he is a great celebrity who is in charge of the military and political power of the Northwest County and the Northern Luzon region. This news immediately caused a sensation in the upper class of the empire.

The nobles and ministers from all sides consulted each other to ask how successful this matter was, because the Thirteenth Princess of the Empire had a deep sense of disgust towards Li Wufeng was almost an open secret. In several public occasions, the Thirteenth Princess had publicly expressed her contempt for Li Wufeng. The Thirteenth Princess' marriage was widely circulated in the upper class of the Empire a few years ago. Because the only request made by Situ Yushuang at the coming-of-age ceremony was that the marriage would be decided by himself, and His Majesty the Emperor also readily agreed to her strange request. Now there is such a storm. Could it be that this is just a smoke screen? With the Thirteenth Princess' identity and talent, Li Wufeng is really a match made by heaven, but unfortunately, the Thirteenth Princess was not interested in this Lord Li, which is really a knot that is difficult to untie.

Soon, news broke out in the harem, saying that the princess of Li Wufeng, a military and political governor of Northwest County and the governor of Northern Luzon, was likely to be the seventeenth princess Situ Yutang, who was three years younger than the Thirteenth princess. The seventeenth princess will hold a coming-of-age ceremony at the middle of this year. Excluding the Thirteenth princess, she is the most suitable candidate. Moreover, the seventeenth princess is beautiful and smart. Although she is not old, she is very decent in dealing with people. She is very popular in the palace and has a good evaluation.

But an insider immediately retorted that when the third prince of the Duoton Kingdom came to the imperial capital to pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor last year, he was shocked and immediately asked his foreign affairs and etiquette personnel to propose to the empire. His Majesty the Emperor was also a little moved at that time. Although he refused in the name of the Seventeenth Princess being underage, he did not say he died, but said that he would consider it when the Seventeenth Princess became an adult.

The third prince of the Dutun Kingdom has never given up and is determined to marry a beautiful woman. He has been staying in the imperial capital three times in just half a year. You should know that although the third prince of the Dutun Kingdom is not the crown prince, if this marriage can be formed, it will greatly promote the further development of bilateral relations and will also be of great help to improve the increasingly severe situation in the empire. Therefore, many officials from the diplomatic and military departments support this marriage.

Then there was a rumor that His Majesty the Emperor intended to marry the Eighteenth Princess Situ Yuzhen, but it was immediately refuted by many people because although the Eighteenth Princess was about the same age as the Seventeenth Princess, and even in appearance and literary talent, their identities were very different, and the Eighteenth Princess had never been loved by His Majesty the Emperor. If the Eighteenth Princess was married to Li Wufeng, it might arouse the dissatisfaction of the people in the northwest and northern Luzon regions.

Because the mother of the Eighteenth Princess was originally a Red Song girl from the imperial capital, in her early years, His Majesty the Emperor had a love relationship with her during a private visit. Who knew that when the deacon in the palace made a routine record, he found that the Red Song girl was pregnant with a dragon seed, so he had to take her into the palace and enthroned her as an ordinary concubine. At first, His Majesty the Emperor was attracted by her charming style, but later gradually fell out of favor. Because of her low background, the Eighteenth Princess was not loved by His Majesty the Emperor.

Finally, another rumor was circulating among the nobles, saying that since there is no suitable princess in the palace, His Majesty the Emperor and the concubines in the palace discussed that they were interested in selecting a girl with outstanding conditions from the noble children of the imperial capital, including the royal family, and then marrying Li Wufeng.

The sensation and controversy caused by this news in the upper class of the empire far exceeded the previous ones. Many noble princes and princes took action immediately to inquire about the accuracy of the news. Some even suggested that even if His Majesty the Emperor had no intention of this before, he would find a way to make His Majesty consider the feasibility of this plan.

Just when the entire upper class of the imperial capital was in a mess, the parties involved were still leisurely enjoying their happy life without any notice. It was already the end of the year, and the vendors on the street were still shouting, striving to sell the goods in the last time of the year. Many shops on the street had closed early and were preparing to stay up to the New Year. Firecrackers were heard one after another, and the children had received New Year's money from their elders and began to squander the annual generous.

All households hung up lanterns of different styles, and the entire imperial capital was now shrouded in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

Wufeng's mansion was also very lively. Although he had moved in, with the efforts of his servants, the entire mansion had been cleaned up. Under the auspices of Charlotte and Gu Mingxia, in addition to the normal guards on duty, the other guards were also pulled up and acted as free laborers and arranged happily. Charlotte even cooked himself, carefully prepared dishes, and prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner for the New Year's Eve night. However, Qin Shuangying was injured that night and had not recovered. She even had difficulty walking. She had to sit in the lobby and directed everyone to celebrate this most important festival for the Tang people.

At this moment, Wufeng rarely had a leisurely day, sitting quietly in the study to cover the book and think about it for a long time.

Another year has passed, but the situation has not been relaxed at all. The matter of being trapped in the imperial capital is like a nail on the board. Although outsiders can't see anything, I understand it any more. If there is no major change in this, I am afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will not agree to take a step out of the imperial capital.

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Wufeng slowly picked up the teacup, took a small sip of the teacup, and slowly put the teacup back on the table. Humph, let's not talk about whether there are any changes, even if the weather is calm, will he not create changes? The empire is now full of dangers, and he actually wants to use this stupid method to control me. He looks down on me, Mr. Li, too much.

The princess is married to marry? A beauty plan? This method is not very clever. Will I, Li Wufeng, give up on my pursuit for a mere woman? Many moving faces and scenes of mian flashed in front of Wufeng's eyes. Although Li Wufeng is lustful, the saying that the gentle place is a hero's tomb is correct and it still remains to be tested. Wufeng grinned and showed his white teeth.
