Li Qi has been annoyed lately, no, to be exact, a little restless. For more than 20 years, Li Qi's eunuch journey has always been in the rich western Zhejiang, which has allowed him to accumulate a lot of wealth. Li Kuang, who had made a fortune, continued to unswervingly follow the eunuch route, and obtained the famous fat difference of salt and iron transshipment. Just when he was full of joy and ready to be greedy, he was ruined by Li Jifu, and he became the envoy of Zhenhai Festival. In fact, Zhenhai Jiedu is also a good official position, because western Zhejiang is not only a "pile of gold and jade, gentle and rich township", but also a picturesque place of "deep water and smoke, air to double wheels".

The smoke and rain and endless wealth in the south of the Yangtze River gave Li Qi a comfortable life, but the comfortable life made him gradually wear out his former ambition and courage, and also seriously affected his judgment. The news that Chang'an quickly extinguished the rebellion in Xia and Shu with the momentum of destroying the ancient and decaying made Li Qi feel confused, he didn't want to be the next Liu Pi, but he didn't dare to return to Chang'an, which made him in a dilemma.

After hesitating again and again, Li Qi decided to follow the story of Tian Chenghe, so he pretended to write to Chang'an, saying that he wanted to enter the Hajj. But he forgot that he was not Tian Chenghei, and Li Chun was not a stupid and incompetent Dezong! As soon as the text was written, Li Chun immediately recruited Li Qi to return to Chang'an and serve as the left servant.

Once, the servant shot was a powerful and noble official position, and the left servant shot was even more noble as the prime minister. But now is different from the past, Zuo Servant has long been reduced to a fictitious title with a job but no power, how can this make the once glorious Li Qi feel embarrassed? What's more, deep down in Li Qi's heart, he was really reluctant to leave this charming Jiangnan, and Tian Chengsi's story flashed through his mind again, yes, just like Tian Chengsi, delayed, dragged until the matter was over. So, Li Qi postponed the trip again and again under the pretext of illness, but Li Chun, the son of heaven who was far away in Chang'an, didn't want to play such a boring game with him, and suddenly announced the edict to recruit him into Beijing.

Either leave this "land of gold and jade, gentle and rich township" and go to Chang'an to be a powerless left servant, or give it a go like Liu Pi, Li Qi has no choice. After thinking about it again and again, Li Qi decided to take the latter road, a road of no return that Liu Pi once walked.

Before embarking on this road of no return, Li Qi made a careful deployment that he thought was seamless, specifically there were two points: First, he sent his henchmen and generals to subordinate the towns to the five prefectures. Suzhou belongs to Yao Zhi'an, Changzhou belongs to Li Shen, Huzhou belongs to Zhao Weizhong, Hangzhou belongs to Qiu Zichang, and Muzhou belongs to Gaosu. The second is to raise the dead and reward them generously, as their own soldiers. There are two types of these dead soldiers, those who are powerful and good at shooting are called Bangqiang, and those who are miscellaneous are called feudal lords. Li Jian foolishly thought that his arrangement was seamless and foolproof, and he could sit back and relax.

Before the stupid Li Qi raised his army, he made a stupid decision to kill the queen Wang Tang, and the specific conspiracy was as follows: first, hundreds of sergeants pretended to mutiny, cut Wang Tang's belly and ate it, and the tooth general Zhao Qi, who didn't know what to do, came forward to stop it, and as a result, he suffered from the pond fish and was also eaten by the belly. He also assigned generals to guard the dangerous points in the Qincha prison room sent by the imperial court, and secretly punished the generals of the five prefectures, and each killed and assassinated him.

After committing this series of rebellions, Li Qi covered his ears and stole the bell in a letter to Chang'an, saying that the mutiny provoked and led to the killing of the generals who stayed behind. The stupid Li Qi thought that the Son of Heaven in Chang'an and the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty were not as smart as him, but he did not know that under the arrangement of Chang'an, the encirclement of western Zhejiang had been formed, and Li Qi, who had not yet raised troops, had already become a turtle in the urn.

Li Qi is a stupid person, and his henchmen and generals are not smart, and four of the five state generals he arranged single-handedly have been ghosts or prisoners of the assassins in various states, and only Yao Zhian of Suzhou captured Li Su, the assassin of Suzhou, which can be regarded as saving some face for Li Qi.

In October of the second year of Yuanhe, Li Qi made the last stupid decision to send troops and horses to Zhang Ziliang and others, leading 3,000 elite soldiers to attack Xuanzhou. This soldier made Zhang Ziliang much smarter than the stupid Li Qi, knowing that Li Qi would definitely end up with the same fate as Liu Pi, he didn't want to be Li Qi's funeral object, so he found the tooth general Pei Xingli and plotted to escort Li Qi to Beijing. This Pei Xingli is Li Qi's nephew, and when he saw the officials and troops coming from all sides, his uncle was still in the dark, dreaming of his Spring and Autumn Festival. I gritted my teeth, turned my heart sideways, and made up my mind: Uncle, I'm sorry, you die, I still want to live for two more years. Since you are a dead person, you simply made a great contribution to your nephew, so you made a secret agreement with Zhang Ziliang and others, and the inside should be combined with the outside, and the rebellion will be tried.

The plan has been decided, Zhang Ziliang led 3,000 elites to kill the Yamen of Jiedu, Pei Xingli responded with fire, and captured Li Qi, who had just woken up from his sleep. Li Qi, who didn't want to go back to Chang'an, finally returned to Chang'an, and in an unexpected way, he also brought his son with him by the way.

A curtain tied Li Qi into a big zongzi, tied down the city wall, and sent back to Chang'an. Chang'an just sent off Liu Pi and his son, and this time he ushered in Li Qi and his son, so it's okay, at least on Huangquan Road, I won't feel too lonely.

But the stupid Li Qi's words are not shocking and endless, "The ministers have no objection at the beginning, Zhang Ziliang and other ministers are for this", the defense is so pale, and so ridiculous, and the classic quote of the crazy scholar Liu Pi "Why is it?" "There are similarities, and the two of them are really difficult brothers, a pair of living treasures.

Li Qi used more than 20 years to accumulate a huge amount of wealth, Li Chun adopted the advice of Hanlin scholars Pei Xun and Li Jiang, and distributed it to the people of western Zhejiang in order to replace the rent of the year, so that Li Qi really did a great good thing for the people of western Zhejiang before he died, but the people of western Zhejiang still did not buy his account, but gave all their gratitude and praise to Li Chun, who was far away in Chang'an. Hey, these days, I can't help it.
