A few days later, Xu Maogong tricked the Li brothers into the Linfen realm.

In order to enter the city, the Li brothers really put a lot of thought into it.

Li Yuanba's pair of drums and urns and golden hammers are too conspicuous, if you enter the city with it in your hand, you will definitely be blocked by the soldiers defending the city, and you can only enter it when the time comes.

In that case, it would be tantamount to an early rebellion.

Now that their brothers have no power, no power, and no good name, they will definitely not get much support if they rebel.

So I can only wronged Li Yuanba, pretended to be a porter, and followed them with a burden.

As for the drum urn and the golden hammer, it can only be put into two baskets and carried by an iron rod as a flat pole.

Fortunately, Li Yuanba is extremely powerful, even if he adds an iron rod, he will not be tired.

"Second brother, I want to ride a horse." Li Yuanba said enviously.

"Yuanba is good, when you don't hurry, the second brother will give you a horse to ride, okay?"

"Oh." Li Yuanba's voice was a little low.

After all, he is the brother of a mother's compatriot, and Li Jiancheng felt a little unbearable when he saw him like this.

"Let's rest for a while." He said.

Li Shimin has no objection.

As for Li Yuanji, he was absent-minded, the expression on his face was very ugly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After resting in a clearing on the side of the road, Li Shimin asked Li Yuanba to put down the pick, and then taught him to ride a horse.

Li Yuanba is still a child's heart, and he is happy on the horse.

Not far away, Li Jiancheng persuaded Li Yuanji: "Third brother, things are over, don't think about it anymore." ”

"Humph!" Li Yuanji gritted his teeth: "Those bastards, they should really let Yuanba beat them to death at that time!" ”

The people Li Yuanji was referring to were the old department when his father Li Yuan was in Taiyuan.

Because Li Yuan was still in the prime of life, and he was not sick or sick, it was impossible for him to think that he would be killed. Therefore, the transfer of power was not done well in advance.

As a result, as soon as Li Yuan died, his old subordinates didn't take his four sons very seriously.

In addition, Yang Jian took advantage of the fire to rob at that time, in order to weaken the Li family's power in Guanzhong, he sent Li Jiancheng to Jiangnan under the pretext that Li Yuan sent troops without authorization.

At that time, most of the people who were loyal to Li Yuan followed them to Jiangnan.

The other old departments, those who were slightly loyal to Li Yuan, were all purged by Yang Jian and Yang Guang. The rest of them are all ambitious people, so they naturally took advantage of the vacuum period when the Li family's power was taken away.

For more than two years, these people have become the climate.

The Li brothers, on the other hand, became traitors to the small court in the south of the Yangtze River.

These old ministries had a bright future, and they were naturally reluctant to follow their brothers in rebellion.

It is precisely for this reason that the current situation of the Li brothers is extremely difficult, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and Li Shimin can only let go of their past dissatisfaction, and the brothers work together to the outside world.

Li Jiancheng also had the same idea as Li Yuanji.

But although those old departments are out of control, after all, the old love is still there, so even if they don't help, they won't be bad for their brothers.

Once Li Yuanba is allowed to kill a few people, not only will it not be effective, but it will definitely have the opposite effect.

When the time comes, those old ministers will definitely be forced to the opposite side, and on the surface they will flatter, but in fact they will spare no effort to persecute their brothers.

No matter how fierce Li Yuanba is, can he withstand the poison? Will he be able to wade through the fire unharmed?

Even if Li Yuanba can be fine.

And what about yourself?

Li Jiancheng sighed: "Third brother, it's better to have more than one thing less, forget it." It's good that this group of people didn't reveal our whereabouts to the court. ”

"Humph! That's because the thieves have the handle in our hands. Big brother, I just don't understand, what's going on with us now? The family is not a family, and the officials are not officials, so what identity should they show when they return to the customs? ”

"People in the rivers and lakes."

"Jianghu? Ringing horses? Greenwood? Li Yuanji chuckled disdainfully: "Just like the thief leader Shan Xiongxin?" ”

Li Jiancheng was silent.

To be honest, his brother's current situation is not as good as Shan Xiongxin's thief.

"Humph!" Li Yuanji mentioned Shan Xiongxin, and his heart was full of hatred: "It's all the fault of this thief, if it weren't for him, how could my father have had an accident, and how could our family end up in such a field today!" No way! When Linfen is over, you must kill him! ”

"Third brother!"

Li Jiancheng was a little annoyed: "What's wrong with you?" Why was he so reckless after returning to Guanzhong? Shan Xiongxin's power is not small, even if our Li family is in its heyday, we don't dare to say that we will take him down once. Isn't it a stone to strike an egg if you trouble him now? ”

Li Yuanji tilted his head and stopped talking.

When Li Yuanba had had enough, the group continued to hurry, and before the sun was three poles, they finally saw Linfen City.

Among the four brothers, Li Yuanji was the most suspicious, at this moment he was riding on a horse, and said uneasily: "Big brother, second brother, when we first came to Guanzhong, that Zhu Shi was lukewarm, but this time I suddenly invited me to Linfen, will there be any traps?" ”

"Your worries are not unreasonable. If it weren't for this worry, your second brother and I wouldn't have led Yuanba here. ”

Hearing Li Jiancheng say this, Li Yuanji suddenly had confidence in his heart.

With the fourth brother Li Yuanba here, and the eldest brother and second brother staring, Zhu Shi couldn't do anything.

didn't know that this time it was Xu Maogong who took advantage of the contradiction they had only seen with the old department, and with the help of the old department of the Li family, he successfully deceived the four brothers to Linfen.

Now that Guanzhong has been peaceful for many years, the gate army is not very strict.

Compared with the prosperous Jiangnan, the war-torn Linfen looks older.

Although it is not as rich as Jiangnan, there are very few beggars in the city, and the lives of the people are relatively stable.

The four brothers walked a hundred meters after crossing the city gate, and a young man who looked a little crooked-eyed stopped in front of him with a big iron rod.

Li Yuanba went to the left, he stopped on the left, Li Yuanba went to the right, he stopped on the right.

This annoyed Li Yuanba, he slammed the basket he was carrying to the ground, and said angrily: "Who are you?!" ”

"Boy! My brother said, let me compare my strength with you. ”

Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji were shocked when they heard this.

Without waiting for Li Yuanba to speak, Li Shimin asked, "Who is your brother?" ”

"My brother said that his name is Huashan Linghu Chong."

"Linghu Chong?" The three Li Shimin brothers looked at each other, and none of them had heard of this name.

Luo Shixin pointed the iron rod at Li Yuanba, "Monkey cub!" Hurry up and compete with me, I'll have to eat when I'm done! ”

Li Yuanba is also a violent temper, and when he heard the other party scream so ugly, he immediately exploded.

"You're looking for death!"

His roar was like a thunderbolt out of thin air.

This is close to the city gate, and Luo Shixin was originally provocative on the street, which was very attractive to the idea, and Li Yuanba's burst of applause immediately made everyone look over.

Li Shimin saw that it was not good, and hurriedly shouted: "Yuanba, don't pay attention to him!" ”
