In the vertical arch hall, Liu E handed a piece of information to Li Zhang and said: "Look at it, you have caused a lot of harm to other people's party items, and now I don't know how many people have died." ”

Li Zhang was happy to take the information when he heard this, opened it and read it carefully, it turned out that since Li Deming's death, his second son Li Chengyu publicly announced that Li Deming handed over the throne of the party to him before his death, so he also returned to Xingzhou as quickly as possible to take over Li Deming's position.

However, when Li Deming was alive, he always regarded Li Yuanhao as his successor to cultivate, and Li Yuanhao was born to Li Deming's wife, the Wuzang clan is also a big clan second only to the royal family in the party, and has great influence in the party, even if Li Yuanhao is disabled, they are still unwilling to hand over power to others.

So in this case, Li Chengyu and the Baa Mi clan behind him formed a faction, while the Wuzang clan pushed out the crippled Li Yuanhao to form another faction, and the two sides were also like fire and water within the party.

At the beginning, the Baa Mi clan and the Muzang clan had not been able to win over the other forces within the party, so the two sides were still relatively restrained, although there were constant conflicts in secret, but on the surface, they had not torn their faces, but they were secretly speeding up to win over those neutral tribes.

It was just more than a month ago that the forces within the party were finally divided, Li Chengyu and Li Yuanhao completely divided the party into two, and the secret struggle was finally put on the surface, and like this power struggle, either you die, or I live, there is no second situation, so the battle between the two brothers finally broke out completely, and the two sides launched a battle for the throne in Xingzhou City.

At the beginning, everyone thought that Li Chengyu had a greater advantage, because Li Yuanhao was crippled after all, which caused many people in the party to be not optimistic about him, so they took refuge in Li Chengyu, and in the end, Li Chengyu's subordinates almost concentrated two-thirds of the strength of the party, and the strength of Li Yuanhao's subordinates mainly relied on the influence of the Wuzang clan, and he himself was just an ornament.

But what no one expected was that Li Yuanhao, who had become a wasted person, cheered up, and after the start of the war, he actually took over the army in the hands of the Wuzang clan, and then personally commanded a big battle with his younger brother, and finally won more with less and drove Li Chengyu out of Xingzhou City.

However, although the battle ended temporarily with Li Yuanhao's victory, the party's civil strife did not end, because although Li Chengyu was driven out of Xingzhou City, at least the people were still alive, and he still had a large number of troops in his hands, and he had the strength to make a comeback.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that after this civil strife, both Li Yuanhao and Li Chengyu were greatly injured, especially Li Yuanhao, although he won more with less, but the casualties paid were also very heavy, it can be said that Li Deming had accumulated more than ten years of strength, and now almost all of them were destroyed in this civil strife, it is said that even the palace built by Li Deming before his death was also destroyed in a fire, so the party members are also discussing whether to abandon Gyeongju City, because they are worried that the Great Song Dynasty or the Liao Congress will take the opportunity to destroy them.

"It's a pity that Li Yuanhao actually cheered up, and he also defeated Li Chengyu, it was a waste of my previous hard work!" After reading the information in his hand, Li Zhang couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, he had created such good conditions for Li Chengyu, but he was still defeated, so it can be seen that this person's ability is not very good, if he is the leader of the party in the future, there will be much less trouble on the side of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Hehe, you can talk coolly, but now Li Yuanhao and Li Chengyu have a problem with the two of them for our Great Song." Liu E smiled indifferently at this time, and handed the two documents to Li Zhang as she spoke.

Li Zhang took it and opened it and looked at it, and found that these two documents were documents to ask for peace with the Great Song Dynasty, and the content was almost the same, but these two documents were sent by the brothers Li Yuanhao and Li Chengyu respectively, and in the end, they also asked for the canonization of the Great Song Dynasty, after all, their party was nominally attached to the Great Song Dynasty, and Li Deming had been canonized by the Great Song Dynasty before, but the party didn't care about this kind of canonization before, but now they are begging for the canonization of the Great Song Dynasty.

"What's so difficult about this, isn't it just two documents requesting canonization, I don't think anyone will seal it, just send a large army over to destroy them, and now the northwest side can also reduce most of the external troubles!" After reading it, Li Zhang immediately replied without thinking about it, in his opinion, the party is to eliminate the evil, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

"It's light, you need money to fight a war, our Great Song Dynasty looks good on the surface, but the treasury has long been empty, in the past two years, I have tried my best to let the people recuperate, although I have recovered some vitality, but I am far from the strength to start a war, in order to make muskets, I even used the sealing pile library left by Emperor Taizu!" When Liu E heard this, she glared at Li Zhang fiercely and said.

The sealing pile library belongs to one of the inner libraries of the imperial palace, but its origin is very interesting, because this is after Zhao Kuangyin failed to attack the Liao State, he thought that it was impossible to recover Yanyun by force, so he collected the gold silk hidden by the separatist forces in the palace, and planned to use the money to buy back the sixteen states of Yanyun from the Liao State, but the money was not saved enough, Zhao Kuangyin died inexplicably, and the sealing pile library was also changed by Zhao Guangyi to the right library, and later called the inner library, which belongs to one of the inner libraries of the palace.

As the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, he didn't want to regain the lost land by force, but he wanted to buy back the lost land with money, which is ridiculous and sad, and it is estimated that this is one of the reasons why the Great Song Dynasty has been sluggish in terms of force.

"If you can't fight, you can make peace, this is the old measure of the party people, Li Jiqian used this means to preserve his strength, so that the party grew into a border trouble in the northwest, and now Li Yuanhao and Li Chengyu are just learning from their grandfathers, and they want to use this method to delay time and solve their internal affairs cheaply, I am sure that as long as one of them wins, it will definitely cause trouble in the northwest frontier again in the future!" Li Zhang pouted at this time and said, there is nothing new in the method of the party members, but the Great Song Dynasty eats them, which is really incomprehensible.

"I don't understand what you're saying, it's just that now is not the time to fight, so for the time being, it's still necessary to appease, you are most familiar with the situation of the party, so I called you here to listen to your opinions, don't say the angry words above!" Liu E said again at this time.
