Chapter 54: The face is kind and the heart is black
Liu Bang is sick!
It is rumored that he is very sick, belonging to the kind of anger that attacks the heart, originally at the age of Liu Bang who is close to fifty, his body function is going downhill, this is angry, it is strange not to be sick.
Wu Pu and other princes who went to visit were blocked out of the tent by Lu Juan and Zhou Bo, saying that Pei Gong was seriously ill, could not see the wind, and could not stand the urgency, if he collided, he would have to worry about his life. In the face of a Lu Juan, Wu Pu and others still had the courage to break through, and in the face of Zhou Bo, they completely lost their temper.
The coalition forces were terrified.
The princes have discussed privately, and some of them have been connected in private, ready to wait for Liu Bang to die, that is, to counterattack and let Lao Liu vomit out what he ate.
These princes were originally reckless, but with their courage, they took the lead in pulling up a group of people, supporting a few children of the royal family of the original Six Kingdoms, or simply following Chen Sheng's own example and calling him the King of Caotou, so that this group of people could fight with Liu Bang, and the result was obvious and defeated.
Wu Pu was very proud.
Among the princes of the coalition army, there are not many generals who can fight, he is the most outstanding one, of course, compared to the group of fierce men under Liu Bang, Wu Pu is still a lot worse, but this point, Wu Pu himself will never admit it.
A conspiracy rebellion was fermenting, and Wu Pu gathered six or seven minor princes who were also dissatisfied with Liu Bang as him, intending to take advantage of Liu Bang's serious illness to raise troops and stand on his own.
Without Liu Bang's much thought, Li Shiqi, Cao Shen and others mastered all the actions of these ill-intentioned people, and Wu Pushili was very simply wiped out before he could make any moves, and this was only five short days after Liu Bang decided to get sick.
――。
In the city of Xingyang.
Regarding the turmoil of Liu Bang's allied forces outside the city and the rumors of Liu Bang's serious illness, Li Yuan learned of this "urgent" military situation almost on the same day. Of course, this is thanks to Liu Bangjun's efficient leakage measures.
"Liu Bang is sick, is this really time?" As soon as Li Yuanchu heard the news, his first reaction was that it was too coincidental.
"General, Liu Bang is seriously ill, the enemy army outside the city is unstable, our army might as well take advantage of the situation to kill the generals-!" It was Li Bi, who had just defected to Li Yuan, who made this suggestion.
With the permission of Ying Yushu, Li Bi took more than 20 disciples of the Li Mansion to Li Yuan's tent, most of whom participated in the recent Battle of Xingyang, and it can be said that it was the friendship formed by fighting side by side that made these disciples who were only loyal to the Li Mansion decide to take another path.
Many of them can't find their names on the Fu books of the Qin State, and their identities determine that they can only be Lingyou, operas and craftsmen in this life. Now, Li Yuan's unscrupulous and talented approach has allowed the customers to find the possibility of entering the office, which makes them grateful.
Li Bi was young, had never fought in any battle, and was not familiar with Liu Bang, so the support for his proposal can be imagined.
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Liu Bang is sick, but the problem has been solved, this time, it will be unlucky, but those who have long recognized Liu Bang as an elder are not long-eyed." ”
"So what should we do?" Li Bi asked, he was curious about everything when he first joined the army, he had the courage of a newborn cow, and dared to ask anything, of course, his courage also came from Li Yuan's intentional cultivation, and Li Yuan had an unusual good impression of this young man who had an intersection with the original owner.
"Liu Bang is sick, let's send him off, in this way, Li Bi, you go to find a few literate soldiers, and hang these words on the flagpole of the city tower: Liu Peigong with a kind face and a black heart, and he is really ruthless when he is sick." Li Yuan replied with a smile, this limerick poem is his immediate heart, Liu Bang has obviously intercepted Chen Ping's proposed letter, in the face of possible internal opposition to Shili, Liu Bang adopted a clever strategy of showing weakness to the enemy and catching them all, which made Li Yuan also admire.
Gaozu, that is, the founding emperor, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Li Yuan is not yet arrogant, thinking that with only a few thousand troops of his own, he can really compete with Lao Liu.
On the same day, he found a few strong men in the army who were coarse and ink-like, and then pulled a strip of pale coarse cloth, carried it with two long thin bamboo poles, and hung it on the head of the city.
These fourteen words are catchy to read, and after word of mouth among the soldiers in the army, they became popular in Xingyang City for a while, not only ordinary soldiers, but also places like Peony Tower began to sing this famous song composed by Li Yuan.
Peony Building.
Business was much worse after Li Yuan moved in.
This situation is just like the new policy implemented after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was held and the new leader was changed, the officials were still very unfamiliar with Li Yuan, the new master, and the officials and big businessmen who knew that the new officials were going to burn three fires naturally would not seek their own defilement at this time.
"Liu Peigong is kind-hearted, and he is really ruthless when he fakes his illness. Li nerd, when can he be a little crooked, it's really a farewell three days, and he should be impressed. In the backyard on the roof, Gu Yunniang took the lead and muttered to herself at the open Zhu window, after ending Li Yuanjun's undercover career, this hot-tempered petite lady returned to a familiar place, and changed back into her beloved purple dress.
"What is Yun Niang talking about, can you listen to my aunt." A low, hoarse voice sounded on the stairs, and Aunt Gongsun walked into the room. Regarding Gu Yunniang's performance in the Xingyang Change, Aunt Gongsun also praised her a lot after everything settled, and with such a cadre under her hands, she can also share a little of the burden on her body.
"Auntie laughed, she's not that idiot-!" Gu Yunniang snorted, and only remembered halfway through her words that the title of this nerd was just what she said in her heart, and it would not be good to spread it.
"Oh, which family's son-in-law made my Yunniang angry, say it, I'll be angry for you when my aunt waits." Aunt Gongsun said with a smile, for Gu Yunniang's little thoughts, as a person who came over, how could Aunt Gongsun not know, this little lady was moved, but unfortunately, the person in her photo did not react.
Gu Yunniang was ashamed and angry, and it was difficult to say that she liked Li Yuan, so she could only blush and not speak, hoping that Aunt Gongsun would no longer be entangled in this topic.
"Yun Niang, there is a letter from the north, for the changes that happened in Xingyang, the people in the north attach great importance to it, and ask us to contact the reinforcements when they arrive, do you think this matter is still handled by you, how about it?" Aunt Gongsun straightened her face and said. For Gu Yunniang's ability, she doesn't need to test anything, as for Li Xiang'er, who tried to rely on Wang Ming's old imperial history, she was already sent to the stove room by Gongsun Auntie to be a fire slave.
