Chapter 91: Li Yu's Ambition
The real place to talk is a solitary place on the second floor of the inn. The office is actually the store manager's room, which is temporarily lent to them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAnd here, it's the only room in the entire inn that won't be monitored.
"You may be seated!" Li Yu pointed to the sofa in the middle of the room, made of pure leather, soft and comfortable, it is the most advanced seat that can be taken out so far, of course, the output will not be high.
"Since entering the autonomous region, there have been more and more surprises for Cheng here!" Cheng Yu also sat on the sofa for the first time, and the feeling that the whole person was trapped in it made him a little unaccustomed. But it's more comfortable than sitting upright.
Although sitting upright is the most etiquette way to sit, even if you put on a cushion, it will be very uncomfortable to sit for a long time. It's just that it's comfortable now, but how to put his legs has become a problem, which makes him feel a little embarrassed.
Finally, I saw Li Yu sitting in front of him with his legs together, and this was the case.
"People exist in the world just to make their lives more comfortable. There are some things, since you don't need to continue to wronged yourself, why should you get along with yourself? Li Yu smiled.
At this time, there was already a special servant outside, bringing tea to the two of them. This kind of tea was not purchased by Li Yu in the system, but authentic wild mountain tea, after repeated attempts to stir-fry, the first batch of roasted tea that was finally made, and only government personnel will ration it in small quantities. The innkeeper is also a government official, so he also has some.
"The tea just made in the autonomous region is not in very good condition, so you can drink it!" Li Yu picked up a cup of tea, motioned for Cheng Yu to drink it too, and then took a sip and tasted it.
Without the kung fu tea technology of later generations, it is inevitable that he feels a little less elegant, but in this year, he doesn't need to buy it directly in the system to have fried tea to drink, which is already very good, and there is nothing to dislike.
Cheng Yu also learned from Li Yu to take a sip carefully, and felt a little bitter at first, but after a while, a stream of sweetness filled his mouth, which was also very novel. As a literati, he had also talked freely with other literati and ink writers about making tea before, but this boiled tea with a lot of ingredients was a little less pure than this kind of tea.
"Good tea!" Cheng Yu smiled and put the teacup on the low table. Although the tea is good tea, he is not here to drink tea this time, and if he takes a big gulp of this thing, it looks a little cheesy.
"At the moment, the production of this tea is not high, so only the officials have rations. However, if Brother Cheng accepts the position of chief bookkeeper, there will naturally be a quota! Seeing this, Li Yu took the opportunity to introduce, of course, he did not forget to continue to tempt. Puzzle Cheng Yu.
"It's not difficult for Cheng to become a master, but I inevitably have some doubts in my heart, and I hope that the county will solve my doubts!" Cheng Yu didn't mean to agree immediately, but looked at Li Yu with interest.
Li Yu couldn't help but secretly say when he heard this: Could it be that this is the test of the legendary famous ministers to choose the master? Anyway, he didn't let him admit the Lord, so he needed to be so solemn? Forget it, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and see how he moves!
"Please!" Li Yu said with a smile.
"The county lord seems to be a disciple of the Li family in Longxi, why did he come to this land of Wu Yue?" Unexpectedly, the first question Cheng Yu asked was to check the account directly.
"The ancestor was forced to join Xiang Yu's command, and the later Han Dynasty had become a climate, and he was afraid of affecting his family, so he had no choice but to come to the land of Wu Yue to live in seclusion. A year ago, a plague broke out in the clan, and the clansmen died, and Li had to leave the hermitage and come to Lingyang! Li Yu replied.
"In other words, the county lord may not be a child of the Li family, right? In fact, Cheng has always wondered why the Li family in Longxi released his words, saying that there may be their clansmen here in Lingyang, instead of having their clansmen, and even named them and said that they were county respects.
Furthermore, why didn't the county zun go back to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and even set up a line of Lingyang Li here...... Could it be that the county really thinks that everyone in this world is ignorant? Cheng Yu told the truth in one mouth, and named him as the only one who saw the problem.
I have to say that Li Yu was indeed a little embarrassed when he asked him like that. The establishment of the Lingyang Li clan is indeed a kind of shirk, and the purpose is that if Liu Hong intends to veto his identity as the Li clan in Longxi in the future, he can at least gain a foothold in the identity of the Li clan in Lingyang.
However, now it seems that this move is indeed a bit of a mistake, but in the eyes of many people of insight, it seems to be a cover-up.
"Heroes don't ask where they come from, Brother Li can get the Li family in Longxi to come forward in person, which is already good. It must be known that so far, the Li clan in Longxi has not denied that Your Excellency is not their clan, which has explained a lot of problems. I just hope that Brother Li will tell him frankly, otherwise there is no need for me to continue the conversation. Cheng Yu said solemnly.
“…… That's it! Li Yu sighed. This time, the news of the Li family in Longxi naturally has some other meanings, but the level involved is too deep, but it is not something that Li can deny if he intends to deny it. Even if Li is not a child of the Li family in Longxi, he has to bear this identity now, otherwise whether the autonomous region can survive is afraid that those big families will not allow it. ”
"Brother Li is a mountain citizen?" Cheng Yu continued to ask.
"The ancestor lived in seclusion, it is said that he came from the Li family in Longxi, but there is no evidence in the end. After coming to Lingyang, he originally planned to settle down, but he didn't want to go up the mountain with the mountain people by chance, and because of a series of coincidences, he became the village chief and was involved in a huge battle, and now he has become the head of the autonomous region, Brother Cheng thinks that he can really do it only by Li? Li Yu asked rhetorically.
"I see...... Cheng Yu is not a fool, and naturally understands that he is only afraid of involving disputes between the imperial party and the family. And it is very likely that Li Yu has become a member of the imperial party.
"What does Brother Li think of today?" Cheng Yu is one of the few existences who can clearly see the struggle between the imperial party and the family, and because of this, he is only forty years old and has not come out, with his talent, joining either side may have an impact on the outcome of the battle.
Helping the imperial party, not to mention ruining its reputation, is also very difficult, and it even has to be the enemy of the whole world. He Cheng Yu is also a family man, his son Cheng Wu is more than ten years old, and Cheng Yan is also three years old, he is only a poor family, how can he fight with the family?
Helping the family, fame and benefits can definitely be obtained, but now that the Han Dynasty is in danger, there are already a few families planning to change the dynasty in order to obtain greater benefits. He Cheng Yu may not be a patriot, but he doesn't want the big man to collapse in his hands, even if he is just participating in it, he is not happy.
The autonomous region is indeed a special existence, and it feels a bit like the means of the family, but its own composition is the Wuyue mountain people; It is said that it is the imperial party, and the people in power themselves come from the family. Therefore, Cheng Yu is a little curious about this, or about Li Yu. It's just that I didn't expect it to be, but he is a member of the imperial party!
"The young man ascended the throne, but he also thought about Zhongxing Dahan, when Nai didn't wait for me, he could only die and struggle......" Li Yu shook his head and said. Yes, don't say anything about ZTE, let's save my life first! Liu Hong is a poor worm!
"The Imperialism has no hope?" Cheng Yu asked with a smile, he had actually thought about this question as well.
"It can be postponed for a few years, but the general trend is set! Li has a cruel medicine here that can solve the problem, but not to mention whether Li wants to prescribe medicine, whether His Majesty wants to use it is also the key. The tiger and wolf medicine is too strong, and if you are not careful, you will take your own life. Li Yu said with a smile.
Cheng Yu's information Li Yu actually went through it over and over again, and in order to recruit him, you must first understand his personality:
Just looking at the historical records, it is not difficult to see that he himself is also a person who knows how to protect himself. is different from Jia Xu's kind of suspicion, but he himself provokes suspicion everywhere, and even allows others to frame him for rebellion, which makes Cao Cao treat him more favorably.
When he died, he was nearly eighty, and his heirs were also valued by Cao Pi.
Li Yu even suspected that Jia Xu might have planned to take this path, after all, he was also an annoying guy. However, Cheng Yu had already taken this road, and he was afraid that others would say that he was following his example, so he had no choice but to take the low-key route of avoiding suspicion. From this point of view, Jia Xu was actually cheated by Cheng Yu.
Now that he has initial contact, it is not difficult to see from his inquiry that he does not seem to have a family background or an imperial party background. Combined with the fact that he was not born in his forties, he can still see something in the end.
If Li Yu didn't have the information of the historical figures of the Three Kingdoms, he might not be able to do this, but now he can see some of the things under the question, such as Cheng Yu's thoughts.
"Will the big man collapse?" Cheng Yu ignored Li Yu's answer, but he didn't need to pay attention to it. The king never gambles big, after all, the stakes are his country.
"If Your Majesty does not have the determination of a strong man to break his wrist, he will definitely die!" Li Yu replied.
"What is a strong man's broken wrist?" Cheng Yu asked.
"Give up the world, retreat to Bashu, follow the past of Gaozu, wait until the country is rich and the people are strong, the world is in chaos, and then go out of the customs to fight!" Li Yu directly gave a solution.
"Your Majesty will not take any chances, and his position will not allow him to do so!" Cheng Yu thinks it's a joke.
"He also has a prince! Maybe this is his last hope......" Li Yu shook his head.
He saw some clues from the information, and Liu Hong may indeed have plans to send Liu Wei to Bashu as the last way back. It backfired, too many coincidences led to Liu Wei being killed, and Liu Xie ascended to the throne, not to mention that Liu Yan was still an ambitious royal family.
All this made Liu Hong's final preparations also fail, and it is unknown whether there is a follow-up.
It is not difficult to see from the contact during this period of time that Liu Hong is actually not so ignorant, but tries his best to prosper the Han. He may not have two or three back roads as preparation for the worst-case scenario. It's just that there is so little information that he can't see the whole truth of the matter.
"Then Brother Li thinks, is there still hope for the big man? Or if the matter has come to this, what is Brother Li's plan? Cheng Yu asked.
"Your Majesty calculates all his life, and he will never let his descendants suffer. If things can be done, then support the prince to ascend to the throne, and be happy to be a Zhongxing prince. If you can't do anything, you should row the river and govern it, and slowly try to do it! Li Yu said solemnly, this is the first time he has revealed his ambitions to others, but he also knows that he needs to do some work to recruit Cheng Yu.
"At that time, the county is only afraid that he will no longer be a child of the family...... Cheng Yu said solemnly, in order to reduce an enemy, the family will inevitably deny Li Yu's family identity, and this identity itself is doubtful.
"Then support the people, think it is a help! Give me thirty years, and I want the people here in Jiangnan to stand firmly by my side! Give me fifty years, I want to let the people of the world be able to distinguish right from wrong on their own and not be swayed by the family! Give me seventy years, and the family will have to obediently accept the rules I have set! Li Yu said solemnly.
