Ling Fang sat down at the table with Li Yi, personally picked up the wine jug and poured a full glass for Li Yi, and then poured it for himself.

"Senior brother, this glass of wine is a senior brother's respect for you. ”

Li Yi picked up the wine glass and said hurriedly:

"Senior brother, why do you say this, the younger brother can sit here, it all depends on the senior brother, this glass of wine should be your junior brother to respect the senior brother!"

"Senior brother, is this what my father meant?"

"Master?" Li Yi's face was puzzled, and his eyes were full of questions.

Ling Fang nodded,

"Yes, if it weren't for the old brother and your warm-hearted way and taking in our father and son, the senior brother would have died a long time ago, how could he still sit here and drink with you. ”

Li Yi smiled,

"It's been a matter of how many years, and the senior brother said this to make the younger brother embarrassed, but it's just a gesture. ”

"Father has always praised you for your young age, but you have a chivalrous heart. This glass of wine is also what the father meant. ”

"How dare this little brother? Why don't we do it together. ”

Ling Fang was also a heroic person, so he didn't shirk, nodded in agreement, and the two raised their glasses to greet each other, and raised their heads to drink the wine in the glass.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Yi said to Ling Fang:

"Senior brother is very familiar with the people in the Qingcheng camp? If it weren't for senior brother this time, I would have to suffer a little. ”

"What is familiar or not, it's not that the money is there. Those of them left the rich life of the capital and came to this poor country just to make more money. After all, relying on people's filial piety is limited, and as for doing business, it depends on my eyes. ”

"Senior brother seems to have done a good job over the years, and I haven't had time to thank senior brother last time, but this time I'm in trouble with senior brother again. I'll give my brother a drink!"

After the two of them had a drink, Ling said to Li Yi:

"Senior brother is not an imprudent person, how can he ...... this time?"

"It's hard to put it into words, and there is always one missing out on a thousand calculations. Saying that, Li Yi recounted to Ling Fang a series of events such as the murder of his son, the revelation that Wang Daxue collaborated with the enemy, and then was framed to rebel against King Fu.

"Senior brother's life is really big! involved in the rebellion, he can still keep a life. "If it weren't for the fact that King Fu didn't have any conclusive evidence, I wouldn't have been able to get out. But he always offended the emperor, and it was difficult to live in the capital anymore. ”

"The junior brother's family has been arranged, do you need my brother's ......?"

"Not yet. ”

Li Yi also left people in the capital, and once the emperor wanted to be unfavorable to his uncle and mother, he would send his mother to Shandong. What's more, he knew in his heart that as long as the emperor was not crazy, he would never touch his uncle, and he also pointed to the eldest uncle to clean up King Fu.

"Although the elder brother has some power on Qingcheng's side, I am afraid that the junior brother will still have to spend some time in Qingcheng, and he can't let the junior brother leave Qingcheng. But you don't need to go to the camp, you just need to live here in peace. I'll find a way to get you out in a few years. ”

"Senior brother, how can you repay the junior brother?" Li Yi was moved in his heart, and he was only grateful to Ling Fang for his arrangement.

"What are the plans of Senior Brother here?" Ling Fang asked.

"Dare to ask Senior Brother, what is the movement of Da Qin next to him?"

"Since the last time you came, I have been sending people to Daqin's side, it was a lot quieter a while ago, but recently things on the market have risen sharply, saying that there may be a war with the Celestial Empire, and many people are hoarding things. Ling Fang replied.

Li Yi turned the wine glass in his hand and was silent,

"But what's wrong? What's the news from the capital?" Ling Fang asked when he saw Li Yi's appearance, put down the wine glass in his hand.

"If the emperor and King Fu start a war, the people of Great Qin may not be able to sit still. ”

"The emperor and the Fu King really want to ......" Ling Fang also beat a drum in his heart, no matter how great his strength is, he is always just a businessman, if he really wants to go to war, his business will inevitably be greatly affected.

"The emperor issued three holy decrees in a row to summon King Fu into Beijing, but King Fu refused, how could the emperor's face be put aside. What's more, even if the emperor doesn't want to fight, King Fu must do it. ”

"Since King Fu wants that position, why didn't he do it back then, even if he wins now, he will inevitably be charged with rebellion. Ling Fang asked Li Yi puzzled.

"King Fu had no intention of sitting in that seat, otherwise he would not have been the first to take office that year. It's just that what the emperor does is not authentic, how can he endure the revenge of killing his father?" Li Yi said in a low voice.

"You said the emperor!" Ling Fang was also shocked,

Li Yi nodded,

"So it's only a matter of time before a war starts, but no matter what, we can't let Daqin fish in troubled waters, otherwise we will all become sinners of the Celestial Empire!" he raised his neck and drank the wine from his glass, placing it heavily on the table.

"Yes, Great Qin has coveted the Celestial Empire for a long time, how could he let go of this opportunity. The last time the peace talks made them greatly strengthened, they really can't be underestimated, but with those people in the Qingcheng camp, can they also protect their families and defend the country?" Ling Fang's tone was full of disdain.

"Even if Great Qin's strength increases greatly, I estimate that they will not dare to go to war directly, and they will inevitably have to find a helper. ”

"Helper, what do you mean?"

"Nanzhao and Great Xia. ”

"I still have some people over there in Great Xia, but Nanzhao ......," Ling Fang muttered.

"It's okay, there's still time. Nanzhao and Daxia are not strong, and they definitely look at Daqin's intentions. As long as they can hold off Daqin, those two will never make the first move. ”

"Also, let's not mention these annoying things today, our brother will drink happily first. ”

Li Yi settled down in Qingcheng. There is also a Shenglong pawnshop he opened in Qingcheng, this is the last time, when he left Qingcheng, he asked his subordinates to open it, mainly to collect news.

The next day, he communicated with the people at the Shenglong pawnshop, and asked the men who followed him to come to Qingcheng. At the same time, he asked people to go down to Jiangnan and enter Beijing respectively to report the safety of Saitama and his mother, and on the other hand, he arranged for people to go to Nanzhao and Daxia to inquire about the news.

As more and more information was collected, his heart became heavier and heavier, Daqin's wolf ambition was obvious, and the garrison of the Qingcheng camp was not prepared at all. No matter how well the information he prepares, no matter how many people Senior Brother Ling has, he will always be unable to compete with a country.

And now his identity is still a prisoner, and the affairs of the Qingcheng camp are not something he can meddle in at all, and he has always been at ease, but at this time he feels deeply frustrated because he can't do it.

In addition, what made him even more happy and worried was that the news came back from Jiangnan that Saitama gave birth to a boy named Ange'er, which made Li Yi very happy. But what shocked him was that Saitama actually left Jiangnan with Que'er and Tang Yong and came to Qingcheng to find him. Worried, he hurriedly sent a message to someone to find Saitama and escort him there.
