On the eighth day of the seventh month, late at night, the king of Qi urgently summoned Wu Benlang to Li Shanheng.

"Duke Wencheng, if the war in Xingyang is tense and we need urgent support, do we have the conditions to support? How many troops can be dispatched? Can it come out tomorrow?"

Li Shanheng was already nervous. Yuwen Shu is the first powerful minister in the world, he can speak on behalf of the holy lord, and he can completely coax the king of Qi into chaos, once the king of Qi is deceived and follows Yuwen Shu into Beijing, it will be over. Now as soon as King Qi speaks, Li Shanheng knows that something bad is happening, King Qi really can't resist the temptation, this standard "three generations of emperors" is really a dou who can't be helped, no wonder the holy lord looks down on him, and doesn't dare to hand over Guozuo to him, this person's willpower is too weak and vulnerable, Yuwenshu casually coaxed him to confuse him so much that he didn't know the south, south, west, and northwest.

"King, haven't you heard that the war in Xingyang is tense?" Li Shanheng pretended to be confused, with a blank expression, "Yesterday, Shun Zhenggong (Dong Chun) reported that Bai had arrived at Jindi Pass, and he wanted to urge Bai to break through. There is no report today, there should be no abnormal birth, otherwise Shun Zhenggong would have been in a hurry a long time ago, and it would not have disappeared now

King Qi knew that Li Shanheng was pretending to be confused and was very dissatisfied, but at the critical moment, he urgently needed the support around him, so he could only put his dissatisfaction in his heart, "Lone said if, but he didn't say that he would immediately support Xingyang."

"The Xingyang battlefield is more than 400 miles away, and if the war is tense, we will not be able to reach it." Li Shanheng replied unceremoniously, "Besides, if the war in Xingyang is tense, the restoration of the Tongji Canal will be even more distant, and the safety of Liyangcang and Yongji Canal will be even more important. The king is too busy to take care of himself, where can he still take care of the Xingyang battlefield?"

King Qi's eyes showed a look of disappointment. Although he is the commander of this army, it is in name, in fact, the command of this army is in the hands of Li Shanheng, and this is the arrangement of the Holy Lord, the Holy Lord ordered Li Shanheng to "monitor" the King of Qi, so whether the King of Qi can control this army or not, the key lies in Li Shanheng's attitude. If Li Shanheng resolutely opposed sending troops to Xingyang, and even did not hesitate to break with the King of Qi, the King of Qi would really be at a loss.

"Why does the king make this assumption?" Li Shanheng cautiously probed, "Could it be that Duke Xu (Yuwenshu) saw that the situation in Liyang was stable, and misunderstood that the king was suspected of watching the fire from the other side?"

King Qi hesitated for a while, and decisively decided to talk and discuss. Rather than hiding and increasing misunderstandings, it is better to make it public, even if you step on two boats, even if you betray Lone for your own interests, but you have one foot on the Lone boat, if the Lone Boat sinks, it is difficult for you to be alone, and you will be pulled on your back when you die.

After King Qi finished speaking, his mood was relaxed, his thinking was a little quicker, and he also realized that Yuwenshu, the old fox, had dug a pit for himself, but that pit was "splendid", gorgeous and dazzling, too tempting, he couldn't resist it at all, even if he died, he wanted to die in that fantastic pit, not die in the cold and barren desert.

"Into Beijing?" Li Shanheng laughed and sneered, "Duke Xu didn't make any promises, why did the king enter Beijing?"

"Aiqing, there are some things that can only be understood but not spoken."

Li Shanheng was speechless, and couldn't help but burst into foul language, "King, do you know why the Holy Lord let you live outside to suppress thieves?" Outside the thief is a trap, how big is this trap you forgot? Yang Xuangan mutinied, you don't save you when you see death, you are guilty; You ran to save it in a hurry, and if you fell into a trap, you would surely die; So you can only choose the third way, kill to Liyang, control the Grand Canal, and coerce the Grand Canal to threaten the Holy Lord, forcing him to let you live. Where is your life? Could it be that entering Beijing is your way of life? Since entering Beijing is your way of life, why did you escape from the Eastern Capital in the first place?"

King Qi's face was cloudy, his eyes were gloomy, and it took a long time for him to say, "This time and that time."

Li Shanheng laughed angrily, "The reason why the Holy Lord was able to win the imperial throne back then was not due to Duke Xu (Yuwenshu), nor to Duke Lao Yue (Yang Su), but because he dominated Jiangzuo. What does the king know about the heroism of Jiangzuo? It represents a great strength, a strength strong enough to surpass the East Palace. If you don't have the strength, even if Xu Gong breaks his leg and says something, he can't win the support of Lao Yue Guogong, and if he doesn't have strength, even if Lao Yue Guogong has three heads and six arms, he can't fight the Wuchuan people with Gao Yingu."

Li Shanheng held back his anger, looked at King Qi, and admonished, "King, in the battle for imperial dominance, you are already at an absolute disadvantage, and you are only a thin line away from death. If you want to make a comeback and make a comeback, the only chance is to go to the north and dominate the north of Xinjiang. As long as the king has strong strength, invincible and invincible strength, who can stop you from winning the emperor? Take a step back and say, if you are strong at this moment, you can decide the success or failure of this mutiny, you can control the direction of this storm, and you still need to grovel to Xu Gong? Do you still need to beg the mercy of the Holy Lord to give you a way out?"

Loyal to the ear, Li Shanheng's evil is equivalent to a slap in the face, hitting the king of Qi with a "blue nose and swollen face", and the king of Qi was furious and walked away.

Li Shanheng also left angrily, in order to prevent Yuwenshu from joining forces with the King of Qi to snatch his military power, Li Shanheng urgently ordered that all the full-time officers of the Zhufu regiment and brigade rushed to Liyang Cang overnight to discuss the army, and ordered all the officers who stayed in the camp to no one should enter or leave the barracks without their own orders, and there would be no forgiveness for violators.

On the ninth day of the seventh month, in the early morning, the anxious King of Qi invited Li Baiyao to the inner hall.

Li Baiyao knew that Zuo Yiwei's general Yuwen had mentioned it, and he also knew that Li Shanheng had an emergency military meeting in Liyangcang late at night, and the connection between these two things was enough to show that King Qi was shaken again in the established decision. Yu Wenshu must have promised King Qi a lot of benefits, and Li Shanheng had no way out, he helped again and again. [,！ Helping the King of Qi to fight against the Holy Lord has already cost his life, and if the King of Qi rebels at this time, Li Shanheng will be completely finished, so Li Shanheng has to threaten the King of Qi with force and make a state of burning jade.

"The situation is difficult, I can't sleep at night, and my heart is extremely irritable." King Qi invited Li Baiyao to sit opposite him, and said worriedly, "Qing Jing has studied the history of the country, so he might as well say the last paragraph, so that Gu can learn from it."

Li Baiyao originally wanted to persuade King Qi, but before he opened his mouth, King Qi put on a posture of listening to him, which made Li Baiyao secretly happy.

Li Baiyao is typical, so he offended the Holy Lord, lost his career, and his life was difficult and bumpy, which can be described as an unforgettable pain, so Li Baiyao naturally chose the battle for the imperial system of the previous dynasty, mixing historical facts, political games and skin pain, narrating, analyzing and deducing it is really full of emotion, lifelike, and poignant.

There are two fundamental reasons why the Holy Lord was able to win the imperial throne in the end. Li Shanheng only talked about one before, that is, strength, and there is a more important one, that is, the concept of politics. The Holy Lord is not only powerful, but his political concept is more in line with the needs of the reform of great unification, and this is the fundamental reason why the first emperor finally chose the Holy Lord, and the crown prince Yang Yong and Gao Ying and other Wuchuan magnates were finally defeated.

What is the political concept of King Qi? King Qi himself has a calculation in his heart, he is against radical reform, against cutting off the wealthy family, although the system of the gate lord clan cannot coexist with the centralized system, but it takes time for a system to replace a system, it needs a gradual process, and the time of a generation is definitely not enough. However, since the late period of the first emperor, the pace of reform has been getting faster and faster, and after the Holy Lord ascended the throne, it was even more galloping, and the result was that the contradictions became more and more intense, and there were more and more political storms.

Yang Xuangan's mutiny was a fundamental contradiction between reform and conservatism. This is a profound lesson, especially for those in power, and the thinking and direction of reform must be adjusted. King Qi insisted on his own political concept, he also had great ambitions, he thought that this was the best opportunity to prove himself, first he could prove that his political concept was right, and secondly, once he entered the East Palace, he grasped the actual power, and he could put his political concept and governing ideas into practice.

King Qi's ideas are still good, and many ideas and ideas are also feasible, although he is too idealistic in politics, it cannot be said that he is naïve and naïve. As the third generation of the emperor, the cruelty of the political game is still clear, but the "third generation of the emperor" has inherited some of the character of the holy lord, such as being too idealistic in politics, which is a fatal point. The Holy Lord suffered greatly, and so did the King of Qi.

In Li Baiye, fathers and sons with similar personalities often have the most intense conflicts in politics. This is the case with the first emperor and the former crown prince Yang Yong, in fact, both father and son are realists, and they both adhere to the gradual and moderate reform ideas, but one is more radical and the other is conservative, and as a result, the father and son turned against each other and fought hard. The same is true for the Holy Lord and the King of Qi, both father and son are idealists, but one is more radical and the other is more conservative, and the result is also a strange enemy.

"The king of the northern frontier is equivalent to 100,000 troops garrisoning the Great Wall, which can greatly deter the northern captives militarily."

As soon as Li Baiyao's words came out, King Qi's heart trembled violently. Dongdu is one of his qiē, father's love, mother's love, family love, all kinds of favorites, and suddenly he was ruthlessly deprived of it alive, and the pain went deep into his bone marrow, so that he couldn't help but cry.

Militarily, he can indeed replace the 100,000 army, but in politics, this is self-exile, this kind of "self-exile" in the political arena of the two capitals released a very strong signal, which shows that he completely gave up the imperial unity, at least in the short term he completely gave up the competition for the imperial unity, and the king of Qi is far away from the two capitals, away from the political center, not only can effectively alleviate the conflict between father and son, but also help to quickly stabilize the political situation in the two capitals, And the political situation of stability is very important to the extremely passive holy lord and center on the political government, after all, it is an unbearable burden for the political situation in the crisis-ridden eastern capital to brew another political storm.

Li Baiyao quietly retired.

Why is all the pain borne by one person?

The king of Qi was no longer able to control his feelings, and he cried bitterly.
