Chapter 65: Good News and Bad News
"What? The law of raising troops has been broken? Didn't you tell me that it was foolproof? Hearing Li Yi say this, King Qi was surprisingly angry! It is precisely because this method of raising soldiers seems foolproof that he will be determined to embark on this road with Li Yi, and now that Li Yi is so understated that he has been broken, how can he not be angry!
Li Yi saw King Qi slapping the table in a panic and shouted
"Panic what! I'm talking about possibility! Even if I don't have this method of raising soldiers, I have a way, but it will take more time, and everything still has a chance! Calm down, and say what do you know about this Xu Ang besides what Liu Dong said that night? ”
When King Qi heard this, he also felt that he was too impetuous, and he was carried away in front of such a big thing as he lost his head, and when he saw Li Yi asking, King Qi has had a lot of contacts with Beijing officials over the years, and it is not difficult to understand these. told the results of the investigation of Xu Ang these days. He is not sloppy about the important matter, and he has also done some research on the people who recommend Xu Ang, and the people who recommend Xu Ang in the capital also understand.
"According to what you say, it seems that this Xu Ang has no other special features except for a good article, I know Chen Ye who recommended him, but this Gan Zhiwei recommends such a person to Xishui, isn't it profound? Or do you perceive something? Li Yi asked
King Qi smiled and said
"Gan Zhiwei is just a rotten Confucian, just like his father Gantang Master! Don't worry, I have dealings with almost all the officials in the court, and the prime ministers on the left and right are all my people, and a small scholar of Hallym University is not worried! ”
Li Yi heard this and said: "As far as I know, Yang Lin has been very important to him in the past two years, and his favor to Gan Zhiwei can't even be compared to the prime minister. There must be something up to it."
Li Yi thought for a moment and said, "Don't talk too much, when we really have a big event together, you will know that Wu Siqi and Fan Wensheng are not on our side after all, and I will avoid you when the time comes." ”
Li Yi said that Wu Siqi and Fan Wensheng are the left and right prime ministers of today's Great Zhou, King Qi smiled embarrassedly, but he didn't care in his heart, the court officials have more or less accepted my bribes, I have this account, and I can't listen to me when the time comes.
"What's wrong with the method of raising soldiers?" King Qi thought of this and asked again, with his IQ, he really couldn't think of what was wrong.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "I just have an inference, recently, when Master Liu of the county government arrives, I will ask some information and then tell you, otherwise I don't know if I am accurate or not." ”
The two chatted like this, and after a while, someone reported that Liu Wei, the master of Wu Hongwei of the county government, had arrived, and King Qi hurriedly invited him in.
As soon as Liu Wei came in and saw the king of Qi, he asked for peace, and he was responsible for the disaster relief, so there were a lot of interactions, and the king of Qi was very generous, and he also got a lot of benefits from it. It's just that King Qi is cautious and hasn't treated Liu Wei as his own, except for nothing to report on the disaster relief situation and find out some information, Liu Wei doesn't know anything else.
"Lord Wang! Are you looking for me? Liu Wei asked, hunched over
"Master Liu, how has the disaster relief happened recently? Is there anything else that needs the king's help? King Qi asked
"Back to King Qi, the disaster relief is still the same as before, there is no big problem, I have allocated enough reserve grain for Xishui County for three days, and now it is almost the same."
"Didn't you say you only needed two days of food reserves?" King Qi asked again
"That's just a statement, promise people, you can't boast about Haikou, now there are so many of them, of course it's better." Liu Wei replied
King Qi nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "It's been like this recently, nothing else?" ”
Liu Wei tilted his head and thought about it, shook his head, suddenly thought of something again, and said happily with a light in his eyes
"That's right! Today, Lord Wu asked me to write about the change of the banner of the county in this month's disaster relief, which is a great achievement, I have just written, and by the end of the month, the accounts will be completed and sent to the imperial court. This is all the idea of the county guard and the king of Qi! I will definitely get the emperor's reward. ”
Liu Wei received Wu Hongwei's instruction to inform the court of the change of the banner, there was nothing to do with the King of Qi, Liu Wei didn't write about the King of Qi just now, just said this, and suddenly thought in his heart, if the King of Qi is also in it, then others will be embarrassed to eat it, and he can tie up the King of Qi, this is a great thing, just add a sum of money.
When King Qi heard this, he nodded in his heart. Li Yi, who was on the side, heard this, his eyes lit up, and he already had a conclusion in his heart. Coughed.
King Qi saw that Li Yi was coughing, and he also understood in his heart, so he called the housekeeper to send Liu Wei out, and handed over a ticket or something by the way. Liu Wei curiously glanced at Li Yi, who he had never seen before, and didn't think carefully why King Qi called him over, but took the ticket and left happily.
Seeing that there was no one around, King Qi looked up at Li Yi, and when he saw him with a serious face, he asked
"What's wrong? Don't you have anything to ask him? ”
Li Yi paused and said
"Which one do you listen to, a good news or a bad news?"
King Qi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say, so he said, "Then let's listen to the good news first." ”
"The good news is that our method of raising troops has not yet been known by the imperial court! So it's nothing for now! Li Yi said
When King Qi heard this, the tense nerves in his heart suddenly relaxed, he heard Li Yi say that the method of raising soldiers had been broken, and he was terrified in his heart, and it was great news to hear Li Yi say this at this time.
"And what about the bad news?" King Qi was a little curious when he heard the news
"The bad news is that we only have twenty days, and after twenty days, if we can't do it, all the efforts we've made before will be in vain!" Li Yi said categorically
King Qi immediately pinched the handrail, he had been looking forward to this moment, but at this moment, when he heard Li Yi say this, twenty days later would be the day of the incident, and his heart couldn't help but be distracted. After a while, he came to his senses and asked
"On what basis do you say that? Is the time now? ”
Li Yi saw that King Qi's face was not good, and after he finished speaking, he reacted after half a day, and he also despised it in his heart, this King of Qi was really useless, if it weren't for the important geographical location of Shanyuan County, King Qi was an important part of his plan, and he would not conspire with such a person.
"According to our plan, we will gather the victims in Xishui County, and when the time is ripe, we will directly cut off the food and grass supplied to the victims, so that the hungry victims will definitely attack the Xishui County Office recklessly." Li Yi said
