Chapter 256: Yellow Pavilion
From Feng Chi's words, Li Dayin could hear that Feng Chi intended to belong to Liu Chuang.
said that Feng Chi was frightened by Liu Chuang? Li Dayin didn't believe it. He knew very well who Feng Chi was. When this guy was in turmoil in the entire Lelang County, he gathered Xiangyong to confront the Goguryeo people, and he didn't show the slightest fear.
Since then, Fengchi has fought against the Goguryeo people and against the Gongsun clan.
No matter how big the wind and waves were, they couldn't make the wind retreat by more than half a step. Now, just a small defeat scared the gallop?
Mo said that Li Dayin didn't believe it, I'm afraid half of the people in Lelang County wouldn't believe it.
So, why did Feng Chi want to surrender to Liu Chuang?
After sending Feng Chi away, Li Dayin sat in the finch room and pondered.
The beautiful maid on the side warmed the wine for him, and quietly withdrew. She knew that at this time, Li Dayin needed to be alone and think quietly.
If the wind gallops back, there will be only Li Dayin left in Lelang County.
Does he still want to continue to help Gongsun Kang? Even if Gongsun Yan had the grace of Li Dayin back then, this kindness would have been repaid long ago. Li Dayin understands that there are many factors involved in Fengchi's intention to belong. The Feng clan is a Lelangwang clan and has always been loyal to the Han family. This can be seen from the fact that after Feng Chi formed the Changcen Thieves, he repeatedly raided the territory of Goguryeo.
In addition, Feng Chi may have seen the situation clearly.
The overall situation in Liaodong has been decided, and Gongsun Kang is powerless to return to heaven......
In other words, Liaodong is about to change the world and return to the control of the Han family.
At this time, helping Gongsun Kang is almost hitting a stone with an egg. Li Dayin had sixty or seventy seagoing ships under his command, ostensibly having the upper hand.
But if there is a war with the Han army, the Han army only needs to garrison the Yu clan, which is enough to give Li Dayin a headache.
Not to mention. If the wind gallops to Liu Chuang, the number of Han ships will multiply. At that time, the ships in the hands of the Hehan army and Feng Chi were enough to wipe out Li Dayin's entire army. This is an inevitable result, Li Dayin knows it very well in his heart. However, he could not make up his mind.
After discussing with Fengchi on Bailing Island for two days, Li Dayin became more and more sure that Fengchi had made up his mind.
On the way back to Zhan Cicada, he was preoccupied.
Occupy the future of cicadas. In his thoughts. Is it attachment, or confrontation? This is a decision that is about tens of thousands of lives of cicadas...... Of course, Li Dayin can also leave it alone, leave Zhan Cicada with the fleet, and continue to be a pirate rampant on the sea. But if so, he is like a rootless wanderer. Not to mention. Li Dayin is not young anymore, is it possible to be a pirate for the rest of his life?
Thinking of this, Li Dayin felt that his mind was in turmoil.
Zhan Cicada is located in the west of Lelang County, west of the West Korean Bay. There is a natural harbor here, and it does not freeze in all seasons. Ships can enter and exit freely.
When he got off the ship at the port of Zhan Chan, he saw that the steward of the house had been waiting for a long time.
"Big boss, there are guests visiting at home."
What kind of guests can there be at this time? Could it be that Gongsun Kang sent someone again. Urging him to send troops to Xi'an Ping?
Li Dayin suddenly had a crooked feeling in his heart. I think that your Gongsun clan abandoned me like a shoe, and now that your Gongsun clan is about to fall, you want to pull me to destroy with you. I am not a retainer of your Gongsun clan, and your Gongsun Kang still hasn't understood this truth. How can you compete with Uncle Liu? No wonder Liaodong fell into the hands of others overnight, and deserved to be like this for your Gongsun family.
"But Gongsun Kang sent someone here? If it were him. I am still preparing my troops and horses, and it will take time......"
"The big boss, not from the Gongsun family."
"Oh?"
Li Dayin was stunned for a moment, revealing a puzzled look.
He really couldn't think of who else would visit at this time besides Gongsun Kang.
The steward whispered a few words in his ear, and Li Dayin suddenly showed surprise, and then nodded and said, "Let's go back immediately, don't lose your manners." ”
He hurriedly boarded the carriage and went straight to his residence outside the city of Zhan Chan.
Li Dayin has occupied the cicada for many years, and there are several granges outside the city of Zhan Chan.
He has come today only one of his many dwellings. After getting out of the car, he hurried into the courtyard and went straight to the living room of the central hall.
In the middle hall, a young man sits.
Li Dayin walked in and arched his hand: "I didn't know that the angel was coming, Dayin failed to greet him, and I ask for forgiveness." ”
The young man suddenly showed a smile, stood up and arched his hand: "The big boss is polite, but the word angel does not dare to be."
I am Sima Yi of Hanoi, and I have come to visit Zhan Cicada today, and I ask the big boss not to blame. ”
Hanoi Sima Yi?
Li Dayin didn't even know where this Hanoi was, let alone where Sima Yi was. However, he still showed admiration on the surface, and he looked up for a long time, and then gave up his seat. After Sima Yi sat down, Li Dayin sat down.
"Young Master Sima came, but on the orders of Uncle Huang?"
Who knows, Sima Yi smiled slightly, "The big boss must have guessed wrong, Yi didn't come here to be sent by Uncle Huang, but came on his own." ”
When Li Dayin heard this, his heart suddenly tightened.
thought that Sima Yi was ordered by Liu Chuang to recruit him, but he guessed wrong.
It seems that in Uncle Liu Huang's eyes, his son of a pariah really can't be on the stage. Li Dayin was faintly disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but said with a puzzled look: "Sima Gongzi came by himself, I don't know why?" ”
Sima Yi said with a smile: "Please join my Yellow Pavilion to serve." ”
"Yellow Pavilion?"
Seeing Li Dayin's dazed face, Sima Yi opened his mouth to explain: "The Yellow Pavilion was named by Uncle Liu Huang himself and handed over to me to set it up. Now that the Yellow Pavilion has begun to take shape, more people are needed to come and help. I've heard people say that the big boss is a good water fox and resourceful. And there are dozens of sea ships under his command, so he came to invite. ”
Li Dayin became more and more confused......
He is resourceful, but after all, he does not have a wide vision and a wide range of knowledge.
I don't know anything about the 'Yellow Pavilion' that Sima Yi said. Sima Yi said earlier that he was not ordered by Liu Chuang to come and send him an invitation, what did he mean?
Seeing that Li Dayin was still at a loss, Sima Yi simply opened his words.
With the establishment of the Yellow Pavilion, the opening of the salt works of Guangludao can provide sufficient financial resources for the Yellow Pavilion.
Merely. The Yellow Pavilion designed by Liu Chuang is extremely large in scale and requires talents from all walks of life. Most importantly, this agency is a secret agency and cannot solicit people everywhere. Especially those children of famous families, they may not be able to look down on the power that Huang Ge has. This also made Sima Yi have no choice but to shift his gaze, and Lu Fang is responsible for business, so he doesn't need to think too much. But in other aspects, he needs to improve slowly. Sima Yi set his sights on those who were not from a good background. More underappreciated groups above......
The cicada thief is the first object he wants to woo.
He had carefully studied Li Dayin and knew that Li Dayin was from a humble background.
In the battle of Ocean Island, after Gan Ning defeated the Changcen thief, Feng Chi did not move for a long time. It shows that this person has no intention of being an enemy of Liu Chuang, and can be recruited.
Come, Sima Yi wants to win over Fengchi.
But then I felt that Feng Chi might not be willing to join the Yellow Pavilion.
The nature of this Yellow Pavilion is destined to fail to make a name for itself, let alone make a contribution. If Feng Chi is attached to Liu Chuang, he thinks that he has saved the family. There is also the idea of making contributions. Let him join the Yellow Pavilion, he categorically refused. Therefore, Sima Yi believed that if Feng Chi surrendered, he would probably be incorporated into Gan Ning's navy. And Sima Yi no matter how noble his status is. It is also impossible to meddle in the affairs of the Navy.
Wind gallop, impossible to join.
And what about Li Dayin?
After studying Li Dayin's experience, Sima Yi immediately changed his target.
This is definitely an object worth wooing...... And Sima Yi believes. Li Dayin will be willing to join the Yellow Pavilion and become a part of it.
"Big boss. I don't want to lie to you. ”
Sima Yi said: "Now the situation in Liaodong has gradually become clearer. General Tai Shici's headquarters has been Xi'an Ping after all, but it is only 200 miles away. As far as I know, the people of Xi'an are panicked and powerless to resist. Gongsun Kang is just a trapped beast now, and he is not enough to persevere.
Once Gongsun Kang perishes, the next step for the emperor's uncle will inevitably be to recover Xuansu County and Lelang County.
In the past, Lelang County was scattered, so the big boss could rely on force to dominate the cicada...... Hehe, I don't underestimate the power of the big boss, if it is a confrontation on land, even if the big boss pours the power of the cicada, it will be difficult to resist the front of General Ziyi's troops; If it was at sea, General Gan Ning was the captain of Henghai, and he was a person that the emperor's uncle valued very much. There may not be as many ships as the big bosses of our Han family, but if it is about combat effectiveness, I believe that the big masters will not be able to bargain. At that point, where will the big bosses go? Is it possible to be a rootless pirate for the rest of your life? ”
Sima Yi's words hit Li Dayin's heart.
He kept his mouth shut, didn't say a word, and his face was even more cloudy.
"Chang Cen is galloping, and he will not dare to compete with Uncle Huang.
I heard that the Feng clan is loyal to my Han, and once the imperial uncle uses troops against Lelang County, Feng Chi will definitely come to join him. Of course, the big boss can also join the imperial uncle with him, but the problem is that the Feng clan is the Lelang Wang clan, and there will inevitably be many people to support it at that time.
But what about you?
Your background is not as good as Fengchi, even if you are reused by the emperor's uncle, you must not be envied. At that time, you will have to face all kinds of difficulties, and even risk your life. If you want to make a career, it's too difficult. You are not Wei Qing, Wei Qing at least has the eldest princess and his sister to support him, but what about you? Who's going to support you? I wonder if you have thought about this question? ”
"Could it be that Sima Gongzi can support me?"
Sima Yi said with a smile: "The Yellow Pavilion was formed by Uncle Huang, and it is extremely important in Uncle Huang's mind.
I was born in Hanoi and was the cousin of the emperor's uncle. Let's put it this way, if the emperor's uncle can ensure your prosperity and wealth for a lifetime, no one can do it without me. The most important thing is that the Yellow Pavilion is not taken seriously, and there are only a few people who know its inside story, except for me and Uncle Huang. If you join the Yellow Pavilion, you are equivalent to Uncle Huang's personal soldiers...... The status may not be very high, but it will inevitably be valued by the imperial uncle.
I can't say much about the benefits.
The big boss, nicknamed the water fox, is also a smart person, and you can understand which one is the best choice for you. ”
Li Dayin, silent!
Of course, he knew that joining the Yellow Pavilion was the best choice.
But Sima Yi also said that the Yellow Pavilion is an extremely secret institution in the hands of Uncle Liu Huang. It was very difficult to join in and glorify the lintel, and this was the kind of glory he wanted the most. After all, the identity of the son of a pariah has brought him too much humiliation.
"I know that the concerns of the big boss are nothing more than not honoring their ancestors.
What's so hard about that? I heard that the big boss has a son under his knees, why don't you let him go to Liaoxi? At that time, I will try to get Ling Lang to join Nanshan Academy, and then gradually change my identity. After Ling Sun becomes an adult, this identity will naturally be different, wouldn't it be more secure? ”
Li Dayin was shocked and looked up at Sima Yi.
He couldn't help but feel a little shocked in his heart, this Sima Yi could actually see through his thoughts?
However, he must admit that the road laid for him by Sima Yi is the best choice.
Compared with his background and fame, he has no advantage. Instead of seeking merit in the jokes and jealousy of everyone, it is better to be steady and change from generation to generation. At least his descendants can change their identities when they arrive in Liaoxi. When his grandson grows up, who will remember that he had a grandfather who was a pariah son?
"Sima Gongzi, what do you want me to do?"
"I want all of your men to be sent to the Yellow Pavilion and to be sent.
I can give you the identity of a Huang Ge Peng, and those sea ships are still under your control. In this way, your strength will not be diminished, and you will not be envied. When the emperor returns to the Central Plains in the future and enters the court, your identity can be promoted again...... After enough qualifications, who will remember your past at that time? And you, too, can make more secure arrangements for your children and grandchildren.
Great Master, these words I have spoken to you today are true from the bottom of my heart.
I came this adventure with great sincerity...... When the Yellow Pavilion can stand in the court, it will be the day when you will soar.
That's all I have to say, please think twice. ”
Li Dayin, this time is really tempting!
Not for anything else, just for Sima Yi's sentence of 'standing in the court', which made him suddenly rise in endless reverie.
"Young Master Sima, you are willing to join the Yellow Pavilion and be sent by you."
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Dayin gritted his teeth and finally made a decision, "I don't know if Sima Gongzi is now, what orders do you need to serve in Dayin?" ”
Sima Yi nodded and stood up.
"The water fox is really a smart person, so I might as well explain it.
I want you to start an incident immediately and announce your surrender to the emperor. Then he led the ship under his command and entered Hirokashima to wait for the dispatch...... This must not be difficult for the big boss. ”
Li Dayin immediately got up, bowed down and said, "Dayin Yuan was sent from Sima Gongzi. ”
"Big boss, big boss!"
Just as Sima Yi was about to make the next step, a steward hurriedly ran over, "Gongsun Gongzi's envoy, ask for a meeting outside." ”
Sima Yi's eyes flashed, staring at Li Dayin.
But seeing that Li Dayin's face showed a touch of anger, he arched his hand and said: "Sima Gongzi, please wait here for a while, Dayin will come when he goes." ”
As he spoke, he strode out of the middle hall.
Sima Yifu sat down again, and after a while, he saw Li Dayin walking in, carrying a bloody human head in his hand.
"Gongsun Kang didn't know the sky, he dared to confront the emperor's uncle, today Li Dayin took this person's head as a gift, and he is willing to belong to the emperor's uncle!"
