Carriage and horses.

Li Qi suddenly found that he didn't know when he had developed a habit and when he was thinking about something, he would climb up to the wall and sit there looking out.

Then I remembered that this habit was actually not his, but Gao Xining's.

Gao Xining always likes to climb to a high place, and when he is in a daze, he has to sit on the wall in a daze.

Thinking of this, Li Qi couldn't help but smile, and there was a little sweetness in this involuntary smile.

Li Qi, who was sitting on a high place, just recalled the whole thing, and habitually made a review, often with unexpected gains.

seems to be in a daze, but in fact, my mind is turning a thousand times, and even the details have been pondered more than once.

After reviewing the entire layout in his mind, his biggest gain was that he found that he had seriously underestimated Zeng Ling.

Yu Jiuling walked not far away and shouted: "Boss, eat." ”

Li Qi replied and asked casually: "What to eat?" ”

Yu Jiuling said: "If you don't hurry up, it's probably what you have left." ”

Li Qi said: "I am the head of the family. ”

Yu Jiuling said: "But it's useless. ”

Li Qi sighed, said something in understanding, and then jumped off the wall, thinking for a moment...... The top is really not as solid as the bottom.

Fortunately, they now have an underground palace.

The two walked back side by side, and Yu Jiuling said as he walked: "Early in the morning, Zeng Ling, the envoy of the festival, asked people to send the silver, and the person who sent the silver repeatedly asked to see you, why did you just refuse to see you?" ”

Li Qi said: "I don't want to see it, after he goes back, Lord Zeng will probably understand what I mean." ”

Yu Jiuling said: "But I don't understand." ”

Li Qi replied: "I don't see his people, which means that I don't want to deal with him anymore, and he seems to want to deal with me very much, but the 100,000 taels are not the silver to deal with me." ”

Yu Jiuling understood that Li Qi was disgusted with little money.

Everyone in the living room was chatting, Li Qi hadn't arrived, the food was on the table, but no one would eat first.

Unconsciously, Li Qi's identity as the leader seems to have been recognized by everyone.

Li Qi smiled: "How embarrassing it is, you wait for me like this, it seems that my status is so lost, it's really ashamed and ashamed." ”

He sat down.

Master's long-eyed Daoist glared at him: "Wash your hands!" ”

Li Qi hurriedly got up again: "Yes, yes......"

Yu Jiuling sighed: "I don't know where Gao is." ”

When they came back from washing their hands, everyone was chatting while eating, and at this time, the guy on duty outside ran in and said that Master Zeng had sent someone to send an invitation.

Li Qi got up and took the invitation, opened it and looked at it, it was Zeng Ling who invited him to the Jiedu Embassy's mansion for a banquet, and the time was three days later.

Tang Pidi smiled: "He is anxious to catch up with the Yanshan Battalion." ”

Li Qi snorted: "Prince Yu is dead, whether he killed it or not, this matter will not be closed for long, the news will definitely spread, and when the time comes, Cui Yan of the Qingzhou Army and Liu Li of the Yuzhou Army may make some moves." ”

"The slogan that I want to do something now is actually not taken seriously at all, before Liu Li said that it was for the court to quell the rebellion, and now it can also be said to be for the court, after all, a prince died."

Li Qi said: "As soon as Prince Yu dies, those two people may join forces to attack, Zeng Ling is not sure, so he wants to win over the Yanshan camp." ”

Tang Pi said: "He probably thinks that the Yanshan camp is also a force in Jizhou, so it is easier to win over." ”

Yu Jiuling said with a smile: "He really thinks that Yanshan Camp is a tool in his hand, let him come, let him move, and he has to move himself." ”

Everyone looked at Yu Jiuling, and Yu Jiuling immediately lowered his head.

Li Qi looked at Zhuang Wudi, who was sitting next to him, and asked, "Brother Zhuang, Zeng Ling wants to win over our Yanshan Camp, what do you think?" ”

Zhuang Wushu pondered for a moment and replied seriously: "I have to ask for money." ”

Yu Jiuling said: "That's nature, let us move by ourselves, and don't give money?" ”

Everyone looked at Yu Jiuling again, and Yu Jiuling chose to shut up.

"I asked Brother Zhuang to send someone back and tell the big boss not to send troops over for the time being, just because I thought of this."

Li Qi continued: "Prince Yu and Zeng Ling, no matter who dies, as long as one dies, the army in Jizhou City will be in turmoil, even if Zeng Ling wins, the Jizhou army will be in turmoil, if Prince Yu wins, the Jizhou army will be even more chaotic, so as long as they hear the news, Cui Yanlai and Liu Li will definitely feel that the opportunity has come." ”

"I thought of it at that time, I asked Brother Zhuang to send someone back to tell the big boss not to be anxious, and now it is still necessary to remind the big boss again."

Li Qi looked at Zhuang Wushu and said, "After eating for a while, I will write a letter, Brother Zhuang, you will arrange for someone to send it back to Yanshan." ”

Zhuang Wushu nodded and said, "Got it." ”

Li Qi looked at the dishes on the table, and said with a smile: "What are you doing so politely, I see you eating, you haven't eaten a few dishes from my side, come on, let's slow down the position of the dishes, everyone tastes." ”

As soon as he said this, everyone pressed the plate in front of them.

Yu Jiuling risked death and said: "Except for the three dishes in front of you, the other dishes are all made by Aunt Wu, and your three dishes are made by my brother Ning." ”

Li Qixin said no wonder.

He looked at Gao Xining, who was sitting not far away, sighed helplessly and said, "They pressed the plate, the dishes on my side were made by you, why do you also hold down the plate on your side?" ”

Gao Xining looked resolute: "Just press it!" ”

Li Qi said: "You press it...... Everyone here, although they have all pressed it, but no one is like you, pressing out the momentum of the food in the people. ”

Gao Xining still looked resolute: "My dish is delicious!" ”

Li Qi finally understood.

This table of dishes, when he first came back, it seemed that no one had not touched it, but in fact, he had already been passive.

The original situation should have been that most of the dishes on this table were made by Aunt Wu, and only three plates were made by Gao Xining, and they were mixed in them.

But these thieves are all better than monkeys, so they put their favorite dishes in front of them, and put the dishes made by Gao Xining in front of Li Qi.

Li Qi asked: "This dish, just from the surface, you must not be able to see which one is made by Aunt Wu and which one is made by Brother Ning, I want to ask for a truth, how did you guess it?" ”

Everyone looked at Gao Xining, and Yu Jiuling said, "She made the first move." ”

Gao Xining twisted his head and looked out the door.

Li Qi thought that she was a little guilty, so he blushed, and he looked sideways, Gao Xining was grinning.

At the same time, the Yanshan battalion.

The big boss Yu Chaozong sat behind his desk and read, his only hobby was reading, since he was a child.

He has always asked the people in the Yanshan camp to read more and read more, but no one is really willing to learn.

At that time, these men are more willing to drink and chat, and talk about things all over the world, which is more uncomfortable than literacy?

He was also helpless, so in the Yanshan camp, he sometimes felt a little lonely.

This also caused one thing, although he is extremely friendly and very good with his brothers, but when he wants to talk to someone, he will always choose someone who has read in the cottage to talk to.

Perhaps tired from reading for too long, he put the book down, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

Then he noticed the letter on the table, it was Zhuang Wu

The enemy sent people back, and the letter said that the situation in Jizhou City is changing rapidly, and the big boss must not rush to send troops.

Of course, he was convinced of Li Qi's talent, and he always felt that Li Qi was his lucky general.

The first time Li Qi saved his life, and the second time Li Qi persuaded him to send troops to the border, which created unparalleled prestige for him.

Now if the people of Jizhou really make a choice, they would rather choose Yu Chaozong's side than the imperial court and the government.

At this time, Zheng Gongru, the eighth master of the cottage, asked to see him from outside, Yu Chaozong just wanted to talk to someone, and Zheng Gongru was a scholar and was also good at thinking.

"This is a letter sent back by the second master, you can take a look at it first."

Yu Chaozong pointed to the letter.

Zheng Gongru immediately responded, took the letter and looked at it, and recognized it as Li Qi's handwriting at a glance.

In the academy, he was a classmate with Li Qi, and of course he remembered clearly what Li Qi's handwriting looked like.

At that moment, a fire rose in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it, and he was unwilling to expose anything in front of Yu Chaozong.

"This ......"

Zheng Gongru shook his head after reading it, as if he wanted to say something and stopped.

Yu Chaozong said: "They are all their own brothers, just say whatever you want, our Yanshan camp has always spoken freely, you may not be familiar with it soon after you come here, and the other masters are very clear." ”

Zheng Gongru hurriedly leaned over and said: "Big boss, what is written in the letter of the second boss is very insightful, but it's just ...... What I think, slightly different. ”

Yu Chaozong said: "You just have to say it." ”

Zheng Gongru cleared his throat and said: "The second boss is worried that there is too much chaos in Jizhou City now, and if we send troops, it will be easy to be involved, and there will be unnecessary losses...... It's just a little lacking. ”

He looked at Yu Chaozong and said, "When I say this, am I disrespectful to the second master?" ”

He knew that it was a letter written by Li Qi, the third master, but he was the second master, of course, on purpose.

Yu Chaozong said: "Even if he is invincible in front of you, he will not blame you for speaking." ”

Zheng Gongru said: "Then I will think of what to say, big boss, in my opinion, although there is indeed chaos in Jizhou City, and the three forces are fighting, but this chaos, isn't it an opportunity?" ”

"If you wait for the three forces to decide the winner, who knows how long it will be?"

Zheng Gongru looked at Yu Chaozong's face, and saw that Yu Chaozong's face was as usual, so he became bolder.

He continued: "Now the Qingzhou army is here, and the Yuzhou army is here, which just shows that Qingzhou is empty and Yuzhou is empty, and it is impossible for Prince Wu's army to control the land of these two states. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Yu Chaozong's expression obviously changed slightly.

Zheng Gongru said: "The second master is thoughtful, which is naturally not wrong, but just waiting is not the choice to compete for power, and there is no immutable truth in the overall situation of the world." ”

"If you don't send troops now, either the imperial court will free up your hands to completely control Yuzhou and Qingzhou, or it will be robbed by other rebels, then it will be the granary of the world, whoever takes it, will take it."

"What Jizhou is, Jizhou is not important, Jizhou is just a springboard."

Zheng Gongru said: "Going south is the most important thing, if you don't go south, what's the use of separating a corner of the north?" If you don't go to the south of the Yangtze River, how can you talk about entering the Central Plains? ”

Yu Chaozong's face changed again.

Zheng Gongru knew that his words had already had some effect, so he became more bold, and he said tentatively.

"The idea of the second master is so conservative, it may have something to do with his background, not that his background is not good, but his eyes are indeed a little closer, after all, ..... Ahem......"

He didn't go on with the rest of the story, because he knew enough of it.
