Chapter 192 [Eating Centipede]
The situation in Shangjing has become critical.
All the civil and military officials in the court were anxious.
Complaints about Li Chengqian came one after another.
Everyone knows that a big part of the reason why Uesugi Tora started the rebellion was because of this Prince of Qing.
"I heard that he castrated Uesugi Tiger..."
"How cruel!"
"No wonder Uesugi Tora wants to rebel. This is a revenge that will end the extinction of all your descendants."
Amazing and sad.
"Let's avoid provoking the Crown Prince of Qing in the future. If we end up falling into his hands..."
Everyone agreed and nodded in agreement.
In ancient times, getting married, having children, building a career, and passing on the family line have always been the most important events in a man's life.
Therefore, Uesugi Tora can now be said to have no hope for the rest of his life.
When one goes crazy, he will naturally forget his relatives and friends and have no scruples.
In one day, the army will arrive at Shangjing and besiege the place.
By then, it would be absolutely impossible to leave the city.
Therefore, many people have already started to flee Kyoto.
However, leaving at this time would be an unwise move.
The tense situation in Kyoto seemed to have nothing to do with Li Chengqian, the instigator.
After taking a hot spring bath, my whole body felt relaxed.
Enjoy the mountain view with the beauty.
The twin peaks are very high and very white.
Looking at a mountain, it is not a mountain. Looking at a mountain, it is still a mountain. Looking at a mountain, it is not a mountain.
"what……"
Chunmei seemed to have discovered something, let out a cry of surprise, then leaped away and got up to chase.
Walking in the snow to search for plum blossoms, the body is ethereal and blends into the snowy world.
Chunmei is a very extraordinary woman, giving people a feeling that she is out of touch with the world.
Dressed in white, she looks like a fairy descending from the sky. You can only admire her from afar and not touch her.
However, she has always lived in Li Chengqian's worldly atmosphere.
Fairies who descended to the mortal world are more attractive.
Not long after, she turned around and returned, using her true energy to gather some insects in her hands.
Looks like a centipede.
The body is divided into nine sections and has many legs.
It looks a bit creepy.
Chunmei supported them with her true Qi and did not come into contact with them. There seemed to be more than twenty of them.
If someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder saw this creature, he would probably go crazy on the spot.
"Sir, this is a rare delicacy. It helps with spiritual practice and has a strengthening effect," Chunmei explained.
Whenever she went to a place, she would always look for some local specialties and make some special delicacies for Li Chengqian.
Eat centipedes today!
Li Chengqian recalled a plot in the world of The Return of the Condor Heroes, where Yang Guo and Hong Qigong seemed to have eaten such delicacies on the top of a snowy mountain.
High-quality ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.
However, although the production method of this nine-section centipede seems complicated, it is actually not simple at all.
Chunmei first put it in strong liquor to get it drunk, and then used her true energy to crush its entire body without destroying the outer shell.
Then deep-fry it on low heat.
The entire process needs to be wrapped in true Qi and must not be allowed to break.
Finally, Li Chengqian looked at the centipede in his hand and couldn't bring himself to eat it.
It looks golden and transparent, very appetizing.
But, this is the first time I eat this kind of thing.
Finally, he took a bite and found it very crispy and fragrant.

Jinyiwei.
Uesugi Tiger's army is about to attack the city, and the situation in Shangjing is very serious.
As the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Shen Zhong was naturally not idle at all and was actively preparing for various matters.
"Commander, Yan Bingyun wants to see you." Someone came to report.
"What is he doing here?" Shen Zhong frowned subconsciously.
He already knew that Yan Bingyun was a spy for the Qing Kingdom.
However, no one was alerted.
Now he actually came to my door himself.
"Commander, he asked me to give this to you. He said that you will see him after you read it."
Shen Zhong took the thing, which was a piece of information.
The intelligence about many secrets of Qing Kingdom was well-founded and did not seem to be false.
Looking at the information in his hand, Shen Zhong fell silent.
After a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Tell him, no see!"
"Yes!"
Outside the Jinyiwei gate.
"Go away, the commander said he doesn't want to see you."
Hearing this, Yan Bingyun, who was now slovenly and no longer as elegant as before, was stunned.
"How can it be!"
He clenched his fists, seemingly unable to understand why Shen Zhong, who had confirmed the authenticity of the news, did not want to see him.
"I am a spy from the Kingdom of Qing, lurking in Northern Qi, and I want to see your commander-in-chief."
He looked at the person in front of him, hoping that the other person would hear his identity and provide help.
Catching an enemy spy is a great achievement.
What's more, he has proved with facts that he is not an ordinary spy.
I believe the other party will understand this point.
When Si Lili was arrested, it was not difficult to see how popular she was from the reactions of the six ministries of the imperial court.
If it weren't for Li Chengqian's protection, she would have lived a life worse than death.
Yan Bingyun is well aware of his own value and is commensurate with it.
Therefore, he is maximizing his value at this moment.
However, the man looked at him with disdain and said:
"We already know your identity."
After saying that, he turned and left.
There was no intention of paying any attention to him.
Yan Bingyun was stunned.
He remembered what Chunmei had said before, that his identity had long been exposed.
At that time, he didn't believe it at all.
Moreover, his voice was very confident, and he would never be exposed.
But now, it turns out that he had indeed been exposed a long time ago.
“……”This slap in the face came too quickly.
This was undoubtedly a big blow to him.
It turned out that the Jinyiwei of Northern Qi had been acting with him all along.
There was another thing he couldn't understand, why Shen Zhong didn't want to see him.
Just as the man was leaving, he spoke again:
"Tell Shen Zhong that I am Sean's grandson. I have a way to make him tell you the secrets you want."
Yan Bingyun directly revealed his trump card.
Hearing this, the man was also stunned and hurriedly ran inside.

royal palace.
"You said, he went to the hot spring?" the little emperor asked in surprise.
"Yes, he left this morning, and only took the Grandmaster's maid with him." The mysterious woman stood behind him.
There were only two people in the pavilion.
"At this time, he still wants to take a hot spring bath. Is he really not afraid that Uesugi Tiger will cut him into pieces?"
The little emperor finally understood the meaning of that sentence.
The eunuch is not anxious, but the emperor is!
Well, that doesn't seem quite right.
She didn't want Li Chengqian to become a eunuch.
"Duoduo is here."
As soon as the mysterious woman finished speaking, Haitang Duoduo flew over and broke through the air.
However, she was not dressed as a saint now.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time." The little emperor said with a smile.
"Your Majesty is so calculating!" Haitang Duoduo said, but her eyes fell on the person behind her.
"It's you!"
Seeing this person, Haitang Duoduo seemed very surprised.
It was not difficult to see that she recognized this person.
But I don't think she'll be here.
"I guess all this is your doing." Haitang Duoduo said.
"Duoduo, you are a typical example of someone who takes advantage of others and still acts ungratefully.
Regardless of our plans, just tell me, do you regret marrying him?"
Haitang Duoduo shook her hair and said truthfully:
"That's not true."
After saying that, she looked at the two of them and said, "Tell me, what other conspiracies do you have?"
