"You are worthy of being King Bai Chenyi's confidant, you are really loyal!" Xu Qiguang's eyes flashed sharply, "However, now you can't be in the room, you have to think of leaving this Longtan Tiger's Den!" I can't talk to Liu Zhi anymore and they are not clear, I have to pull them over for my use, otherwise, with a few of us, we will be taken if we can't get out of Zhili! He looked up at the banner in the hall, and framed ten teacups-sized characters on rice paper, although the writing was unruly, it was the true secret of life that his father gave him: proud and unhappy, frustrated and unhappy.

Xu Qiguang closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, as if he was gathering his courage and wisdom, Wang Sirui's words were still in his ears, and he sneered for a long time, and said: "Liu Zhi looks magnificent, but in fact, he is a villain, he can't be a lifetime if he got cheap last time, he can come to me as an uninvited guest, of course I can also go to his house to go to this troubled water!" ”

Lang Tingshu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Go now?" A little too rushed, right? ”

"Not in a hurry!" Xu Qiguang thought about it, and stood up with a "snap" on the back of the chair, "I've thought about it for a long time, but I lack a dragon and tiger banquet to protect it, and with the war song, it's complete!" As he spoke, he turned around and poured three major wines, handed Shang Zhange and Lang Tingshu a glass each, and said, "It's done!" ”

Li Hui took Xu Jie's proposal and Xiao Zhi to Xu Shizi's Mansion to play chess with two new pieces of information, and went to Liu Zhi's private mansion on Gulou West Street to report to Li Zhu. As soon as he entered the Zhong Daxian Society, Liu Zhi immediately saw that this Li Hui had the conditions that Wang Zhenbang, Huang Sicun and Ah San were difficult to achieve—he was old, senior, had a big hand, had many acquaintances, was clever and intelligent, and was well-informed.

Judging from Huang Jing's words, Xiao Zhi still has the intention of using Li Hui. After several tests, the first time he saw Li Hui, Liu Zhi rewarded him with two hundred taels of gold cakes, and instructed Li Zhu that Li Hui's line was not promoted by Wang Zhenbang, he and Li Zhu personally mastered it, and Huang Jing did their own thing, and did not collude with each other. Therefore, Li Hui soon became a celebrity.

The two pieces of news brought by Li Hui immediately caused a sensation among the Zhong Daxian Sect. Jiao Shan, Zhu Shangxian, Zhang Da, Chen Jizhi, and Shi Guobin, the backbone of the Zhong Daxian Sect, were all whispering, estimating the situation that was about to change. Huang Sicun felt that Li Hui was obviously later than him, but now that he had become the focus, he felt that his face was a little dull, and when he looked back at Wang Zhenbang, he didn't seem to have any mustard, smoking a long pipe of dry tobacco one after another.

Liu Zhi had already heard what was said inside, and after drinking the medicine, he thought carefully for a while, and then slowly walked out of the hall, and saw everyone surrounding Li Hui and asking about the details. Li Hui seemed to have become the central figure, with a light on her face, sitting on the wooden footsteps and talking with her eyebrows fluttering, and spit and splattering. Seeing Liu Zhi come out, Li Zhu jumped up from the chair and said loudly: "The young master is here, kneel and worship!" When more than a dozen people heard this, they all turned around and knelt down, and called softly: "Chitose! ”

Liu Zhi ignored it, walked straight to Li Hui, and asked with a pleasant face: "This is all a confidential matter—how do you know it—get up, sit and talk casually, and in the future, as long as we don't invite God and don't hold an incense hall conference, we won't make this rule." ”

"Back to the young master's words!" Li Hui quickly got up and said, "There are many friends of the slaves!" The letter to the court in Nanjing was heard from the newly held seal; I went to the Three Dynasty Mansion to listen to a bare-ass friend who was a slave in the Shizifu Mansion when he was a child! For Xiao Zhen, he could neither be called "king, saint", nor derogatory, so he gave him a "inside" name.

Liu Zhi sat back in the chair, opened the folding fan and looked at it, turned his face and asked Jiao Shan with a smile: "Brother Jiao, what do you think of these two things?" ”

"Two things are one thing." Jiao Shan's complexion was dark, and he was not smiling, it was difficult to see his expression, and when he heard Liu Zhi ask him, he replied without hesitation, "Qi Guo is afraid of using troops, and he is not to be outdone, he wants to end peacefully, and the Three Dynasties also have ulterior motives, but they are just calm on the surface." ”

"I think Xiao Zhi wants to touch Xu Qiguang's bottom, but he is not sure!" The one who spoke was "Ge Lao" Zhang Da, although he was old, his voice was very loud and his voice was very brittle. Liu Zhi blinked his eyes, what he was most worried about was "the end of the peace". There is no chaos, the millions of congregations of the Zhong Daxian Sect are a rabble, what use can it be used? And how to complete the task entrusted by the gentleman and bring Xiao Zhi back? After pondering for a while, he asked his military advisor Li Zhu with his eyes.

"What the two of you said makes sense, of course Qi Guo doesn't want to raise an army casually, and it's okay to be a little tempted." Li Zhu glanced at everyone with a deep gaze, "The most important thing now is not to guess what they are thinking, but to see what they are doing-Brother Jizhi might as well talk about the situation everywhere, and everyone will understand after thinking about it." ”

Ji Zhi is one of the backbones of Zhong Daxian Sect, his Taoism is profound, and the information of all parties is summarized by him, and when he heard Li Zhu point to himself, he cleared his throat and said: "Now Qi is training troops in Rehe, Liaodong, and Inner Mongolia, with a total number of about 350,000, which is very energetic, and Wu Haoze also inspected the training situation in various places not long ago. He spent a lot of money to develop a new type of cannon, and Xiao Zhi went to see it in person. The passages from Qinghai and Inner Mongolia to Senei were all set up with cards, and local officials were not allowed to levy horses indiscriminately, but Qi Guo himself collected twice as many horses as in previous years. The household department is even more strenuous in collecting grain, and this year it is about 30% more than in previous years...... The difficulties on the side of the Three Dynasties were greater, but the preparations for war were done more fiercely, horses were recruited from the Tibetan side, and the number of troops increased by thirteen ......"

Jizhi was very familiar with the situation, and looked at the map, and spoke for half an hour before he said a rough idea, and finally said, "These are all letters sent by hall masters from all over the world, and I have seen them with my own eyes, of course they are very reliable." ”

"The tip of the needle is against the wheat, this is the current situation." After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and said, "Huang Jingzhong asked for peace, and it was approved; Bai Chenyi asked for peace and allowed it; Xu Jie's recital was complaining, but it was still accurate-this is courage and courage, and I can't help but admire this Xiao Zhen! Xu Jie also believed that he was a Han Chinese, Cao Cao in the world, and there were many generals and generals, in my humble opinion, this battle was decided. ”

Liu Zhi listened, lowered his head and thought about it, and asked Zhu Shangxian beside him: "How is the situation in the Qi Palace?" Zhu Shangxian was extremely fine, and only whispered a few words sideways. Li Hui listened attentively, but she didn't hear a word, and she was afraid that everyone would see it, so she had to pretend to be absent-minded and draw the Tao on the ground with her fingers.

After a long time, I heard Liu Zhi nod and say: "It's enough people to make it, don't make people anymore, I always feel that Xiao Zhi has noticed us." ”

Li Hui shuddered when she heard this, and drew a rash on the ground casually.
