The emperor asked Guo Chongtao and Kong Qian, which of you is willing to interrogate Li Zhiyue, but Guo Chongtao and Kong Qian did not dare to interrogate, and finally Li Siyuan took over the task of interrogating Li Zhiyue.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, the emperor announced his retirement from the court.

******

After retiring from the dynasty, when Guo Chongtao returned home, he walked on the road, and he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Since Kong Qian entered the court, how do I seem to feel that I have hit a wall everywhere!" ”

Guo Chongtao sighed very rightly, when Kong Qian did not enter the court, every time he gave the emperor and the emperor's father any strategy, every strategy he made was almost a hundred victories. But what about since Kong Qian entered the court? Since Kong Qian entered the court, every time he gave the emperor a plan, or every time he did something, he found that he was always not very smooth.

And that's exactly what happened.

Before Kong Qian entered the court, Guo Chongtao had given Li Ke and Li Cunqiao a lot of ideas. Even if Zhu Wen's 400,000 soldiers show off his might, when he only has less than 100,000 soldiers, he can also deal with Zhu Wen. But what about since Kong Qian entered the court? Since Kong Qian entered the court, when he went to the Southern Six Kingdoms, as soon as he left, Kong Qian expected that he would definitely lose. As a result, he really didn't get anything. And this time, this time he wanted to kill Li Zhiyue silently, but as soon as Kong Qian came, his face was ugly.

******

As soon as Guo Chongtao finished sighing, Guo Chongtao heard someone on the side of the road talking: "Take the rugged and detoured road, how can you not hit the wall!" ”

"What?"

When Guo Chongtao heard this, he was shocked.

Moreover, Guo Chongtao was still surprised.

Guo Chongtao said: What? Walking on a rough road, how can you not hit a wall? Am I on a rough road?

Guo Chongtao thought about it carefully: What I walked was indeed a rugged road!

Guo Chongtao thought to himself: What I am walking is indeed a rugged road. Last time I went to the Southern Six Kingdoms, what I thought was, I went this time, I can say that no one in the Southern Six Countries should care about me and Xishu, and I will destroy Xishu in one fell swoop. I want to make a big move. "Rough roads", of course. And this time? What I want to think about this time is: to execute Li Zhiyue silently. Li Zhiyue is not guilty, I want to execute Li Zhiyue, of course, it is a "rough road"!

Guo Chongtao said in his heart: Who is this person who is speaking?

Guo Chongtao took a look: The person who spoke was twenty or thirty years old and didn't know him.

Then. Guo Chongtao wanted to catch up with that person and ask who that person was.

Guo Chongtao quickened his pace.

However, when the man had said that, his steps quickened.

Soon, the man disappeared into the crowd.

This is on the street. There were a lot of people on the street, and that person quickly disappeared into the crowd on the street.

Guo Chongtao didn't know martial arts, and he couldn't walk very fast, so he didn't catch up with that person.

Guo Chongtao said: Who is that person? That man must be very remarkable in the future.

*******

Who is that person?

Speaking of that person, it's really remarkable.

That person was the future lord of the Southern Tang Kingdom.

Who is that person? That person is Li Zhiyue's brother Li Zhihao.

In the former, Li Zhiyue went to Guo Chongtao's house to meet Guo Chongtao. At that time, Li Zhiyue didn't dare to let his brother go with him. What Li Zhiyue is afraid of is that if Guo Chongtao turns his face, Guo Chongtao will kill himself and his brother. So when Li Zhiyue went, she only went by herself. That's the case. Even if Guo Chongtao turned his face, Guo Chongtao could only kill himself. As a result, after Li Zhiyue went, Guo Chongtao really turned his face, and Guo Chongtao really wanted to kill him.

What about Li Zhihao?

After Li Zhiyue left, Li Zhihao was waiting for Li Zhiyue in the store.

As a result, the first-class Li Zhiyue did not come back, and the second-class Li Zhiyue did not come back. Li Zhihao was not at ease, so he went to Guo Chongtao's Guo Mansion to inquire about the news of his brother Li Zhiyue.

Now, Li Zhihao has just heard the news of his brother, and he is walking on the street. He heard Guo Chongtao's words of sighing to the sky. In this way, Li Zhihao replied to Guo Chongtao.

Li Zhihao's talent is very good.

Li Zhihao is much stronger than his brother Li Zhiyue.

Li Zhiyue was when he was a child. His grandfather, Xu Yuanwai, and his mother, Xu Qing, were very concerned about his studies.

Xu Yuanwai and Xu Qing both knew that he was the royal family of the previous dynasty, and Xu Yuanwai and Xu Qing both had dreams of letting him spread their wings in the future.

Therefore, when Li Zhihao was young, Xu Yuanwai and Xu Qing invited many very knowledgeable teachers to teach Li Zhihao.

At the same time, Xu Yuanwai and Xu Qing are also very concerned about Li Zhihao's learning.

******

The reason why Li Zhihao said that to Guo Chongtao just now was what he meant. He wants to use words to enlighten Guo Chongtao, he wants Guo Chongtao to take more sunny roads and less rugged roads in the future.

Li Zhihao's thinking is different from Guo Chongtao's thinking.

Guo Chongtao's idea is: if you want to take the rivers and mountains of Xishu, first force Xishu to become a madman, and then say that Xishu is a madman, so as to obtain the rivers and mountains of Xishu. You're crazy, and of course there's no reason for you to sit on the throne. How can a madman sit on the country? So, you're not crazy in the first place, and I'm going to make you crazy. Therefore, in order to get the rivers and mountains of Xishu, Guo Chongtao only had 200,000 soldiers to press the border, and forced Xishu to levy heavy taxes on the people. You pay heavy taxes to the common people, of course, I can say that you are not suitable to sit in the country.

And what about Li Zhihao's thoughts?

Li Zhihao's thinking is: No matter who you are, whether you are a friend or an enemy, I will treat you as a success. For Li Zhihao, Guo Chongtao is not a friend, Guo Chongtao almost took the life of his brother Li Zhiyue, until now his brother Li Zhiyue's life and death are uncertain, can Guo Chongtao be regarded as Li Zhihao's friend. is a person like Guo Chongtao, Li Zhihao also wants to use words to enlighten him, and he also wants Guo Chongtao to try not to take a rough road.

Otherwise, Li Zhihao would have sat on the throne of the Southern Tang Kingdom in the end.

******

Just talk about Guo Chongtao.

After Guo Chongtao listened to Li Zhihao's words, he stayed for a long time, and he thought about it for a long time.

In the end, Guo Chongtao walked back, and while thinking, he would go home.

After Guo Chongtao returned home, he kept thinking about the young man's words.

Until now, Guo Chongtao didn't know that that person was Li Zhiyue's brother Li Zhihao.

******

Let's talk about Li Siyuan.

After Li Siyuan received the task of the emperor asking him to interrogate Li Zhiyue, he was worried.

Of course, Li Siyuan understands that this case is not easy to try.

Of course, Li Siyuan understands why neither Guo Chongtao nor Kong Qian wants to take on this case.

At this time, Li Siyuan regretted a little, he regretted that he should not have taken over the case.

Li Siyuanxin said: Why did I come here, it was none of my business, it was just the emperor's business with Guo Chongtao and Kong Qian, but this "hot potato" let me take it over.

But Li Siyuan thought again: For the sake of the court, I am right to take this "hot potato". I don't take this "hot potato", let the emperor blame Guo Chongtao and Kong Qian, let Guo Chongtao and Kong Qian turn their faces, and let the monarchs and ministers "tear down" each other and disagree with each other!

Li Siyuan thought to himself: Since I have already taken over this "hot potato", what should I do? (To be continued.) )
