The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1122

[Chapter 1122 Wang Chen]

This time, after Lin Tian walked to Chen Huifang’s side, he hugged Chen Huifang’s waist again. Chen Huifang looked at the dozen soldiers walking in front of her and wanted to break free from Lin Tian’s arms again, but this time Lin Tian increased his strength.

Chen Huifang felt Lin Tian’s strength and could only look at Lin Tian, but Lin Tian just hugged Chen Huifang’s waist and did not do anything else. In the end, Chen Huifang could only blush and walk forward with Lin Tian holding her slender waist.

Along the way, Lin Tian sometimes teased Chen Huifang and sometimes accompanied Chen Huifang to see the scenery on the road. When Lin Tian saw that Chen Huifang was a little tired, he asked the dozen soldiers in front to stop and rest.

At noon, Lin Tian asked the soldiers to eat some dry food they carried with them, drink some water, and then rest for a while before they started to hurry on their way.

Originally, at the speed of a normal person, it would only take two hours, but Lin Tian and Chen Huifang walked a day. It was not until dusk that they arrived at the beacon tower where Lin Tian had been last time.

“Who is the commander here? Where is he?”

Lin Tian asked the guard, but the guard wanted to ask who Lin Tian was, but when they saw the clothes of the soldiers behind Lin Tian, they gave up the idea of questioning Lin Tian.

“Who are you? Which team do you belong to? What are you doing here?”

The soldier saw the people following Lin Tian, and saw that some of them had different weapons, but their clothes were the same as his, so he asked Lin Tian and others kindly.

Lin Tian did not blame the soldier. Maybe he was not on duty yesterday, and he didn’t know that Lin Tian had been here yesterday, so he didn’t recognize Lin Tian. He still questioned Lin Tian, after all, this was his duty.

“I am the prime minister of Yan State. I came here because the general asked me to solve the problem here.”

Lin Tian showed his identity jade card and said to the soldier on guard.

“It’s the Prime Minister. Hello, Prime Minister Lin. The commander here is General Wang Chen. Please follow me, Prime Minister. I’ll take you to see him.”

The soldier on guard was very excited when he saw Lin Tian’s identity jade card, but he quickly suppressed his excitement and spoke to Lin Tian in a stiff tone.

Lin Tian had heard that the military discipline was strict, and now seeing this soldier on guard, Lin Tian finally understood how strict it was.

“Yeah.”

Although Lin Tian was thinking about this in his heart, he still nodded to the soldier on guard.

After seeing Lin Tian nod, the soldier on guard turned around and walked towards the beacon tower, then opened a stone door next to the beacon tower and walked in.

Lin Tian turned around and looked at the dozen people he brought with him. They must have changed shifts here frequently, and they all had their own residences.

So, Lin Tian said to them: “Do you all have a place to stay here? If so, take a rest first and gather here in the evening. I have some things to arrange.”

“Yes.”

The 10 or 20 soldiers said to Lin Tian, and then they all walked towards another beacon tower.

Only then did Lin Tian realize that it was possible to go down next to this beacon tower, and there was even more space inside the Great Wall. Lin Tian pulled Chen Huifang and followed the soldier into the Great Wall. Suddenly, it became dark in front of their eyes. After

seeing the darkness in front of her, Chen Huifang involuntarily moved closer to Lin Tian. The little hand that Lin Tian grabbed also couldn’t help but hold Lin Tian’s palm tightly.

In the darkness, there was still a little faint light, which allowed Lin Tian to see that there were steps under his feet. Lin Tian pulled Chen Huifang’s little hand and followed the soldier along the steps.

When he reached the bottom completely, Lin Tian saw some yellowish light coming out from inside, which was obviously the light of the oil lamp.

Moreover, there was no light in the Great Wall. I’m afraid that the only light that could come in was those lookouts that were one person high.

Lin Tian saw that the walls of the Great Wall were inlaid with oil lamps, and some people were resting inside. The soldier continued to lead Lin Tian and Chen Huifang forward. After walking for a while, Lin Tian and Chen Huifang were led by the soldier to a room.

At this time, there was a fat man in armor in the room. The soldier stood directly at the door and said to the inside: “General, Prime Minister Lin has arrived.”

The fat man, the so-called Wang Chen, turned around after hearing the soldier’s words, and then looked at Lin Tian and Chen Huifang.

“I greet Prime Minister Lin. Due to my important position, I was unable to go out to greet you. I hope Prime Minister Lin will forgive me.”

Wang Chen bowed to Lin Tian and saluted, saying at the same time.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

After hearing Wang Chen’s words, Lin Tian waved his hand slightly and said to Wang Chen casually.

“I heard from General Huang Feng that Prime Minister Lin has thought of a solution to the problem that has troubled us for many years. Is it going to be solved here now?”

Wang Chen asked Lin Tian.

Wang Chen made room for Lin Tian and Chen Huifang, but the room was too small, so only Lin Tian could sit down. Chen Huifang stood obediently behind Lin Tian, and Wang Chen stood opposite Lin Tian.

“Well. I came here to solve the problem of the fortress. It’s getting late today, and we have been traveling all day. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Lin Tian felt sorry for Chen Huifang when he thought about how she had been with him all day, so he said to Wang Chen.

“Okay, I have asked the soldiers to prepare the room for you. I will take you there first. You can have dinner first, and then have a good rest. We will talk about how to solve the problem of the fortress tomorrow.”

After hearing what Lin Tian said, Wang Chen showed an excited expression on his face, and then quickly led Lin Tian and Chen Huifang to a room not far from this room.

“Prime Minister Lin, you guys take a rest first, dinner will be delivered to your room later.”

Wang Chen said to Lin Tian, then turned and left.

“I’m afraid I have to wrong you again this time. If I hadn’t insisted on dragging you out, I’m afraid you wouldn’t stay with me in this dark inner wall of the Great Wall.”

After Wang Chen left, Lin Tian and Chen Huifang looked at each other awkwardly again, and then Lin Tian spoke helplessly to Chen Huifang.

“Brother Lin, I know that it is a last resort to find a place to stay in such a snowy place, not to mention that this is also the border of Yan State, and it is even more difficult to find a place to stay.”
