The King of Shu moved swaggeringly in Chang'an City and took down King Li Yuanchang of Lu and a group of noble disciples who followed Li Yuanchang.
Then Du He and Fang Yiai were beaten, and Fang Xuanling was asked to pick them up in person.
The news that the King of Shu was alive was like having wings. In one day, it spread throughout the honorable circle of Chang'an City.
Some are happy and some are sad.
When the group of people who followed Lu Wang Li Yuanchang returned home, their family members immediately sent someone to bring money.
The rest of the people, who had spent money in heaven and earth and owed money, originally had no intention of paying it back, but when they heard that the King of Shu was not dead at all and was still alive and well, he sent someone to settle the debt overnight.
These little nobles can't afford to offend the living hell king of Shu. If they are targeted, it will be easy for their families to be destroyed.
If you don’t believe it, take a look at Changsun Wuji’s house.
That was the greatest nobleman of the Tang Dynasty. He was also the leader of the Guanlong Group and a relative of the emperor. How miserable is he now?
And they are just humble nobles who live their lives relying on the shadow of their ancestors.
They are good at adding insult to injury, but they would not dare to face the King of Shu and give them ten courages.
The main reason is that on the night when the King of Shu faked his death, the King of Shu led his men to directly massacre the Changsun Mansion. It was so terrifying that he was simply inhuman.
Moreover, the Zheng family in Xingyang was exterminated, and it was probably related to the King of Shu.
Cheng Yaojin came to Qin Qiong's house as soon as he got the news, and Qin Qiong also got the news. After all, these nobles were all connected.
"Hahaha...brother, the King of Shu is not dead!"
"This is absolutely true. A nephew of my wife's family went to fool around with King Lu and caused trouble in heaven and earth. He was blocked in the room by King Shu and almost tortured to death."
"My nephew gave birth to eight thousand guans, so I decided to let it go, but it was a big misfortune."
Qin Qiong's face was rosy and she was sitting on a chair drinking tea calmly. He naturally got the news.
The King of Shu is alive, and he is the happiest person.
Because he placed all his ideals of realizing the value of life on the King of Shu.
He is only forty-three years old this year, which is considered middle-aged. At this age, it is the time to serve the country, fight on the battlefield, and expand territory.
It's a pity that he was suffering from old illnesses and could not go to the battlefield, so he missed the battle to destroy the Turks.
Later, the King of Shu saved him and gave him a new life. Unfortunately, the King of Shu passed away. This was a big blow to him, if for no other reason than that he could see that the King of Shu had the ambition to expand the territory. .
Without the King of Shu, even if the invincible Qin Qiong came back, Li Shimin would not reuse him. For no other reason than that, he did not side with His Majesty during the Xuanwu Gate incident.
But when the King of Shu is alive, the situation is different.
The King of Shu is a pure man and a man who is good at making use of all resources. He will never leave this brave and invincible man to live in Chang'an.
"Zhijie, it's a good thing that King Shu is alive, but there are some things that you and I can't figure out. Let's go see Niubi together now."
"Niubi definitely knows what's going on behind it. If the time is right, we can start to grab the quota for the expedition."
When Cheng Yaojin heard that he was going to compete for a spot in the expedition, his eyes suddenly lit up.
His family is now very poor and can no longer afford beef. Now he wants to go to Tuyuhun to rob it... to make contributions.
"Brother, I, Old Cheng, will listen to you."
The two went to find Yuchi Jingde first, and took Yuchi Jingde to Li Ji's house.
Li Ji's original name was Xu Shiji. After he gathered his people and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, he gained the favor of Li Yuan because he was upright, loyal and not greedy for merit. He was given the surname Li and became Li Shiji from then on.
Later, when Li Shimin ascended the throne, in order to avoid taboos, he directly removed the word "世" in the middle and became Li Ji.
Li Ji grew up in a wealthy family and was familiar with hundreds of schools of thought. He also loved military books. Influenced by Taoist thought, he worked as a Taoist priest for a period of time.
Later, the world was in chaos and the people were in dire straits. His home was not robbed by the rebels, but by the officers and soldiers. In anger, he joined Wagangzhai and became Zhai Rang's dog-headed military advisor. He recruited heroes from all over the world and made the court look good. .
Later, I heard that Li Mi had betrayed Yang Guang, and that Pu Fan Gong Li Mi was a wise master, so he respected Li Mi as the head of Wagang Village to win people's hearts and expand his influence.
However, Li Mi was a scheming bitch, which made all the heroes of Wagang Village feel chilled, and internal conflicts ensued.
Later, Li Mi was defeated by Wang Shichong, and Li Ji led his troops to surrender to Li Shimin, and became the general of Li Tang. This man was thoughtful and good at using troops.
Li Shimin pointed out that he would fight there. In the early Tang Dynasty, he was as famous as Li Jing.
Although Li Ji was Cao Guogong and made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, he was a low-key person and liked to study medicine. The layout of Cao Guogong's mansion was very simple. Herbs were planted in the yard. There was no trace of it being the Duke's mansion. There are very few servants.
The two entered Li Ji's house. Li Ji was wearing a short hexagram, holding a hoe, and was weeding his beloved herbs. He was sweating all over, but he was enjoying it. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
A pink little girl, holding a horse spoon, is watering her father's herbs.
"Dad, this herb was eaten by an insect."
"Which one was eaten by a bug?" After hearing this, Li Ji quickly turned around, came to his daughter's side, leaned over and looked at it for a long time, and sighed, I haven't eaten the damn bug yet, but you have eaten it first.
He caught the bugs one by one and crushed them to the ground.
"Sir, Mr. Yi and Mr. Lu are waiting for you in the living room."
Li Ji stood up and said, "I understand."
He knew that these two people must have come because the King of Shu was still alive.
It's just that the King of Shu is alive, what does it have to do with you and others?
"The flowers are thick, you water them here first. Remember to water every herb, but don't water too much."
Li Ji ordered his daughter, then turned and walked towards the living room.
"Uncle Bao, Zhijie, why are you here?" Li Ji said with a smile.
Qin Qiong took a look at Li Ji's clothes and smiled: "Niubi, are you growing herbal medicine again?"
"Old Qin will obey you in the war. He will cure diseases and save people. If you can't do it, the King of Shu is the medical genius."
"You have been treating me for this old disease for how many years. The more you treat it, the worse it gets. King Shu has a prescription and the disease is cured. Look at me now, hahaha. The invincible Qin Qiong on the battlefield is back again. .”
Li Ji: "..."
Li Ji was so angry!
Over the years, he has tried his best to treat Qin Qiong's illness, making medicine for you for free every day, but you still come to make fun of me.
Heartless thing!
But after all, they were brothers who depended on each other for life and death. Li Ji was so aggrieved, but he was happy for Qin Qiong in his heart.
"Shu Bao, you and Zhijie are here just to make fun of me, right?"
Cheng Yaojin said, "I, old Cheng, didn't say a word!"
Qin Qiong finally became serious: "Old Taoist, there is something we want to ask you for advice."
Qin Qiong expressed her doubts and waited for Li Ji's answer.
Li Ji pondered for a moment. Although he kept a low profile, he had already guessed that the King of Shu was still alive.
So he told the two of them his guess.
The more Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin listened, the more frightened they became. Sure enough, His Majesty still had a dark heart.
"When you come to my place, you won't just listen to my serious nonsense, right?"
Qin Qiong smiled and said: "Of course not. We want to hear where His Majesty will attack next so that we can make preparations."
"Don't think about it, it's not your turn!"
Qin Qiong: "???"
Cheng Yaojin: "Old Taoist, my old Cheng's three-blade ax is not a guarantee. Just tell me, when did I, my old Cheng, lose his chain on the battlefield?"
"Why didn't Your Majesty choose me?"
Li Ji smiled and said: "There is Li Jing in front, Hou Junji behind, and Duan Zhixuan is leading the army over there. I guess the early war is over now."
"In the end, there's an old Taoist like me!"
"In a war, it's your turn."
"Hey, old Taoist, let's figure it out... I, Old Cheng, still hope to go to Tuyuhun to make a fortune!" Cheng Yaojin immediately rolled up his sleeves and got ready to get started.
"Know your integrity, don't make trouble, the old Taoist is trying to provoke us!" Qin Qiong said.
"Old Taoist, don't play tricks on us. We just want to grab a position and be a forward general."
"Hahaha……"
"The old Taoist said that since His Majesty defeated the East Turks, he has stopped expanding outwards. It's not that Your Majesty has no ambition to expand the territory, but that there is unrest in the country. The wealthy noble families in Shandong are not as powerful as Tuyuhun. The intrusion of small countries is even more terrifying..."
"Your Majesty just wants to solve internal problems first, and then solve external problems."
"And in this operation, I did not expect that His Majesty would eliminate the serious problem of the Zheng family in Xingyang in one fell swoop. The speed was so fast that no one could react."
"At this moment, Your Majesty has the powerful weapon of public opinion, and the hearts of the people of the world are towards Your Majesty. Even if Qi Wang and the wealthy family of Shandong know that Your Majesty killed the Zheng family in Xingyang, they have no choice but to retaliate. They can only temporarily compromise with Your Majesty."
"Because once the Zheng family is destroyed, water transportation will be in the hands of the imperial court. If the entire Shandong wealthy family wants to make money, they have to look at the imperial court's face."
"Your Majesty will take care of Shandong's wealthy families."
"Next, His Majesty will give a piece of candy to the wealthy families in Shandong, the Guanlong gentry, and even the wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River. This piece of candy will be the cattle and sheep of Tuyuhun and the products on the plateau."
"The veteran guesses that the war to destroy Tuyuhun is not far away."
"However, if you want to catch this train, you have to go to the King of Shu. Your Majesty may ask the King of Shu to go to the northwest."
Qin Qiong bowed and said: "I have learned a lesson, Niubi is still the same Niubi as before."
Li Ji: "..."
"Do you want to stay through dinner?"
Cheng Yaojin touched his belly and said with a smile: "The food cooked by my sister-in-law is very suitable for my old Cheng's appetite."
Li Ji smiled and said, "My wife is not at home, and we don't have a cook at home."
Qin Qiong: "..."
Qin Qiong pulled the confused Cheng Yaojin out of Li's house.
Li Ji has already issued an eviction order.
Qin Qiong thought for a moment and then smiled and said: "Zhijie, you go and find Jingde. I, Lao Qin, are treating you today. I will see you in heaven and on earth."
Cheng Yaojin didn't expect Qin Qiong to be so generous today and even treat him while he was still in heaven and earth.
Cheng Yaojin happily went to find Yuchi Jingde.
Qin Qiong mounted his horse and headed to heaven and earth alone. In fact, when he learned that the King of Shu was alive, he knew that this was a game, a game that His Majesty had laid out for the five surnames and Qiwang.
But the scene was so realistic that he thought King Shu was really dead.
It seems that Qin Qiong is still too naive.
However, simplicity also has its advantages. People's hearts are too complicated and can easily capsize in the gutter, just like Changsun Wuji.
He thought about Changsun Wuji's misery, and now he wanted to laugh.
Changsun Wuji was beaten in vain by the three of them.
However, he was almost beaten to death again later. Who did it that time?
