Hearing Xia He reply outside the curtain that Shi Zhuang and they came back to ask to see him, Li Ze, who had already been asleep, turned over and got up, without wearing any clothes, and ran out with a bang on his bare feet.

As the bedroom door slammed open and slammed against the wall, Xia He, who was bluffed, came back to his senses, grabbed a jacket, and trotted behind with his shoes in pursuit.

In the small hall, Shi Zhuang and the other four people were also startled when they saw Li Ze like this.

Li Ze didn't speak, just stared at Shi Zhuang.

Shi Zhuang clasped his hands into fists and said with a smile: "Childe, live up to the trust, the big thing has been decided."

Hearing this, Li Ze held his breath for a long time, spit it out a long time, and suddenly felt relaxed all over his body.

"Childe, clothes, shoes!" Xia He trotted in, stretched out his hands and draped the jacket on Li Ze, and squatted down to put on Li Ze's shoes.

Li Ze vomited in one breath, suddenly laughed out loud, pulled his shoes, bent down to pick up Xia He, and turned around in place a few times, Xia He, who was caught off guard, screamed, and his face was red with shame.

"Childe, let me down."

Li Ze smiled and put down Xia He.

Xia He, who was flushed, glanced at Shi Zhuang, whose face did not change color, and then at Chen Changping, Li Hao and Li Han, who pinned their faces to the side, turned around, and ran out of the small hall like the wind.

Li Ze smiled and put on his shoes, and said to a few people: "Let's go, go talk in the small study."

walked into his small study with a few people, Xia He didn't know where to hide, Li Ze took matters into his own hands, made a pot of tea for a few people, poured a cup for each person, and waited until everyone sat down, Li Ze sat down and said to Shi Zhuang: "Tell me, how did you do it?"

Shi Zhuang took a sip of tea and moistened his throat, and then he went out this time, starting from meeting Liang Han to killing Li Che at the end, and told Li Ze in detail.

"4,000 armor soldiers, 30,000 government soldiers, just gone?" Li Ze sighed.

"That's it." Shi Zhuang nodded and said: "The timing of the Khitan cavalry inserting into the battlefield is really wonderful, in that case, even if the gods descend to earth, they will not be able to save the German army. A big defeat is inevitable. Losing this battle will doom them to the end."

"This time, it's hard for a few of you." LI Zedao.

"I lurked in the peach forest, and I saw with my own eyes that the Khitan soldiers chased into the peach forest and cut off the heads of Li Che and others. And they can't explain it at all, they can't explain it clearly." Shi Zhuang smiled: "This matter is seamless and there is no hidden danger. Childe can do his own thing with confidence."

Li Ze bowed slightly.

Since Li Che deceived the door, since he knew the grievances between the Su and Wang families, killing Li Che had become his only choice, but how to kill this person without being eaten by the aftermath was too difficult.

Li Che is not an ordinary person, he is the young master of Chengde, he is the half-brother of his Li Ze, and he is the heir recognized by Chengde, if people know that he died at his own hands, it will be too bad for his future development. What's more, the reputation of killing a brother will be on top of his head from now on, and he will not be able to wash it off for a lifetime.

Don't say that he is just the illegitimate son of a small festival envoy, even if he is the emperor, the Huanghuang history books, the spring and autumn period of the sword and pen, will still leave a heavy mark.

Such a stain can never be washed away.

But now, all of this is no longer to worry about. Someone carried the pot for themselves, and they couldn't help but not carry it.

Li Ze has a big heart.

Turning his gaze on Chen Changping on one side, Li Ze smiled and said, "Changping, before leaving, I told you that after this matter is completed, you four brothers can regain their freedom and no longer sell themselves to me as slaves."

Standing up, he took down a box from the bookshelf behind him, took out four body deeds from inside, put them on the table, and pushed them to Chen Changping.

Shi Zhuang smiled and turned his head to look at Chen Changping. The corners of Li Hao's mouth pulled up, as if he was smiling or not, Li Han looked indifferent.

Chen Changping took a deep breath, took the four body deeds from the table, looked down for a moment, the expression on his face kept changing, for a long time, he suddenly put the four body deeds on the table again, and pushed them back to Li Ze.

"Huh?" Li Ze tilted his head and looked at Chen Changping.

Chen Changping stood up, clenched his fists and threw them to the ground towards Li Ze, "Please allow the four brothers Chen Changping to follow Gongzi's side until we die in battle, or die of old age. Chen Changping hereby swore an oath with heaven and earth as evidence, if there is any deviation, heaven and earth will be destroyed, and the whole family will not die well."

Li Ze sat up straight with a smile, "Have you figured it out?" You don't regret it?"

Chen Changping nodded heavily: "I will never regret it. In fact, ever since I was captured by Childe, I've been thinking about Childe's comments about me at the time. Thinking about it, ask yourself, in the past, I did have selfish intentions, thinking about doing a big business, thinking about making a name for myself. But this failure made me sober up, following Childe for so long, watching Childe do things, Changping also understood a lot of things in his heart."

Li Ze smiled and took a sip of the teacup, "What do you understand?"

"If you want to achieve a career, you must have a stage for yourself to show what you have learned. And now, Gongzi is the one who can provide me with this stage, and Chen Changping naturally swears to follow him." Chen Changping raised his head and stared at Li Ze and said.

Li Ze nodded with satisfaction, if Chen Changping was full of loyalty, he would not be too relieved about this person, and as he is now, he will directly say that he wants to use Li Ze's platform to show his ambitions, but let Li Ze look down on him.

That's what is normal.

If you want to say that Li Hao and Li Han are loyal to themselves, there is nothing to say, Xia He and Tu Lichun are loyal to themselves, that is also a matter of course, and they have neither kindness nor morality to the four brothers of Chen Changping, where does such loyalty come from?

It's still the same old saying, each other's interests just coincide. He needs a fierce general like Chen Changping, Chen Changping needs to provide him with a stage, and the two come together, it is a match made in heaven.

People like Chen Changping, even if they go elsewhere, with their kung fu, they can get ahead if they want to, but it's hard to say how far they can go. But now that he's following him, it's very different. He is the person who followed him when he was most unlucky, and he is an old man around him. There are not many people around me who can rely on now. This gives him room to rise quickly.

If before, he was still a small force in the countryside, but now, with Li Che's death, his future suddenly brightened, and then he must try to get close to the supreme power of Chengde, as long as he can take this step, he Chen Changping can be regarded as one step to the sky.

And if it is replaced by another force, with his bravery, if he wants to quickly climb to the current height, I don't know how many years, how much blood, and how many dangers will he have to go through to obtain it?

Is there a better option than yourself?

Naturally, there is no more.

This is a smart person.

And Li Ze just likes smart people the most.

He also confidently thinks he can handle smart people.

In the previous life, his subordinates were almost the smartest people in that world, and Li Ze was able to let them gather under his own hands to fight for themselves and sweep the world, relying not only on personal charm, but more importantly, on the sharing of benefits. At that time, he did the same work as he does now, formulating strategic directions, delineating a general framework, and then leaving the bottom to play freely, and he put the more important work on reconciling the distribution of interests among a large group of subordinates, and did his best to make everyone's interests roughly the same.

Seek common ground while reserving small differences!

Of course, there are irreconcilable contradictions that lead to the emergence of betrayers, and Li Ze doesn't feel how sad and angry he is, so he concentrates his firepower and defeats the betrayers.

Compared with the wars in the previous life that were more complicated but without gunpowder, Li Ze felt that what he was experiencing now was much simpler.

Stretching out his hand to help Chen Changping up, Li Ze smiled and put the four body deeds back into the box, put the box back on the bookshelf behind him, and said, "Okay, just like I said to everyone on Baizhang Rock, you don't live up to me, I won't abandon you. These deeds can be taken as a souvenir, and when we all have gray hair and beards, we can also take them out to recall today's eventful years."

Shi Zhuang smiled and said congratulations to Chen Changping. After experiencing this incident, Chen Changping can be regarded as truly integrated into this small collective.

Sitting down again, Li Ze said to Chen Changping: "Your work is going to be adjusted, from today onwards, you go to Shen Congxing's subordinates, and replace Li Han as a tun chief, with your joining, the absolute force of Shen Congxing's song has risen a lot."

Li Han on the side looked at Li Ze with wide eyes: "Childe, where am I going?" What am I doing?"

Li Zexiao looked at Li Han's tall and burly figure, and said, "I found a good place to learn something from some people, if I learn it, it will be a great contribution to my son."

Shi Zhuang was a little curious, and couldn't help asking, "Where did Gongzi let Li Han go?"

Li Ze looked at him with a smile: "The thousand thousand Qianniu guards promised by Gao Xiangsheng are here and there are five hundred people, guess what I want Li Han to do?"

Shi Zhuang's eyebrows twisted slightly, looked at Li Han's figure, and said in disbelief: "Son, could it be that among these five hundred people, there is a Mo knife hand?"

"One hundred Mo swordsmen!" Li Ze raised a finger and shook it in front of Shi Zhuang.

Shi Zhuang laughed: "Gao Xiang's promotion is really a big deal, Childe, if Li Han can pull this Baimo swordsman over, it will lay the foundation for Gongzi to form a real Mo swordsman army in the future. If Gongzi can have thousands of Mo swordsmen under his command, then where can the world go?"

"Thousands of Mo knife hands?" Li Ze's eyes widened, "Then do you think, when will I be able to form such an army?"

Shi Zhuang suddenly laughed.

At the height of the Tang Dynasty, there were millions of troops in the entire Tang Dynasty, and the established Mo Daoist army was only a few thousand.
