Later Tang Mingzong Li Siyuan, whose real name is Miao Jilie, was a native of Beishatuo and the adopted son of Li Keyong, the king of Jin.

Li Siyuan was born in the eighth year of Xiantong (867), three years before the return of the eight gods of Xiantong. He is only eleven years younger than his adoptive father Li Keyong, fifteen years younger than Zhu Wen, and eighteen years older than Li Cunmiao of the Later Tang Zhuangzong.

Li Siyuan's biological father Miao Wuyu died early, and his grandfather Miao Donglong was one of the traitors who were formed by Feng Chenghou Youtong and Huang Zhao, the double whipping king of the god trafficking realm. After Miao Donglong's hard work, although he failed to be crowned a marquis, he also won the title of Liupin, and his prestige in Shatuo's family was very high.

His father Miao Wuyu was ten years older than Li Keyong, but the heroes cherished each other, and Li Keyong showed extraordinary bravery at the age of twelve or thirteen, so the two had a deep relationship.

Because of Miao Donglong's honorable position, Miao Wuli married the Tang dynasty Zhuang as his wife. When the Zhuang family gave birth to Miao Jilie, his father Miao Wuli died in battle because of the infighting of the Shatuo clan to protect Li Keyong.

When Miao Jilie was thirteen years old, his grandfather Miao Donglong sold cattle and horses alone, became ill from overwork, and died of illness. My mother-in-law soon died of depression. Only the Zhuang family and his son Miao Jilie are orphans and widows, living hard. In order to support his mother, Miao Jilie resolutely chose to join the army and became a member of Li Keyong's father, Li Guochang.

At this time, Li Keyong was twenty-five or sixteen years old and had already started a family. Occasionally, I found that the son of my friend Miao Wuli was also in the army, and he was only thirteen years old and showed great bravery, so he adopted Miao Jilie and entrusted someone to his mother Zhuang to find someone else.

Since then, Miao Jilie changed his name to Li Siyuan, and followed his adoptive father Li Ke to fight for and kill early. Until he ascended the throne at the age of sixty and became Tang Mingzong, he fought directly in battle for forty-seven years in his life, not to mention the sons of heaven in all dynasties, even among ordinary generals, such a combat experience is probably extremely difficult to find.

Later historical records say that Li Siyuan was a tribesman of the Shatuo tribe without a surname, and wiped out his father's and ancestors' affairs, especially the descendants of the Wuer genus, who were even more disdainful. But if you can hide it from the people of the world, can you hide it from the immortals? Especially if you can't hide it from the Yuan Dealer Emperor and all the gods.

Because he was lonely and helpless since he was a child, he survived by accumulating military exploits, and relied on his adoptive father Li Ke to care and teach him in every way, so he saw life and life very clearly, and he attached great importance to friendship. For the friends of the stepfather Li Keyong, which one is better, I can see it more clearly, but I don't say it on the surface.

As a friend of Li Siyuan's father, this Hu Yanqi was a hardcore supporter of the Jin army, and Li Siyuan was often in awe of his character and behavior. As soon as there is no war, he will go to Huyanqi Mansion to discuss many strange problems, and he knows a lot about the thinking of the peddling world.

This played an extremely important role in Li Siyuan's arrangement, winning more with less, hedging against strong, and turning defeat into victory.

Many of his shocking tactics are all derived from the stories of the traffickers mentioned by Hu Yanyi. In particular, the classic battle examples of gods such as Wangyun, Changdu, Huang Yi, Huang Zhao, and Liu Yongchun have never been seen in the art of war and unheard of in historical materials.

Since Ji Zhou, the writers of history have been disdainful of the scenery of the people in the world who are in the history books, and they have deleted them together with their heroic achievements, and future generations cannot learn from them. However, how shameless the filthy people in the trafficking world are left in the history books, deliberately creating an impression of how blue the trafficking industry is to future generations.

Li Keyong did not win every battle in his life, and when he lost, it was miserable. can often make a comeback, all thanks to the help of many heroes in the hawking industry. These little bits, these sincere friends, such kindness is like a mountain, how can Li Keyong, Li Siyuan and his son forget?

When the fifth brother of Baoying's thirteenth uncle, Cao Bo, took his daughter and found the eldest grandson of the eighth sister of Taiyuan, and the ninth brother Hu Yanqi and his wife, explaining that he wanted to ask his baby daughter to find the most reliable family. It is said that Li Siyuan is very good, so he came over specially and asked his brother to refer to his opinion.

Hu Yanqi and Eldest Sun Die immediately stroked their palms and laughed, and Hu Yanqi shouted: "Fifth brother, you can find out the place." Li Siyuan listened to the old man's words the most, this kid is indeed the dragon and phoenix among people, your vision is really poisonous. It's just not good at all, Li Siyuan already has a wife's room, and Yanjiao married in the second room, I don't know if it's okay?"

Hu Yanyu, the son of Hu Yanyu, as long as Li Siyuan does not go on the expedition, the two brothers are almost inseparable.

At this time, it was the third year of Qianning (896) of Zhaozong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Siyuan was twenty-nine years old, Hu Yanyu was twenty-six years old, and Cao Yanjiao was eighteen years old. Although Hu Yanyu did not join the army and did not gain fame, he thought very highly of himself and never found a suitable wife, and how old are Li Siyuan's children.

The reason why Hu Yanyu thinks highly of himself is not in fame at all, but in the depth of the peddler's cold eyes on the world. Peeping at the true scriptures in troubled times is not the ability of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and the peddlers who represent the most grassroots people just have incomparable advantages. Speaking of which, you might as well talk a few long words.

In the past, when Xu Maogong and Wei Zheng were still wandering the rivers and lakes, did anyone have verified what they relied on to make a living? Otherwise, how can there be a fool in the world who takes the family's money and does things that are not traceless, and his parents and wives will definitely not support it. This is also the reason why the historian deliberately concealed it.

Xu Maogong was later given the surname Li Ji, the British Duke Li Ji, and more than eighty percent of his strategies came from the understanding of business in his early years, and later contributed these strategies to the soldiers.

Wei Guogong Li Jing is not like this, more than ninety percent of his strategy comes from the experience of peddlers. Li Jing wandered the rivers and lakes when he was a teenager, and it is still the old saying, what do he eat and drink when he wanders the rivers and lakes?

Go to place A, pour some of the things from place A and sell them to place B. Then they sold the things from B to C, then they sold the things from C to D, and then they sold the things from D to A. The cycle goes back and forth, going back and forth to various places, the rivers and lakes are wide, and the amount of accumulated experience is incomparable.

Most of the people who think highly of themselves like Hu Yanyu come from well-known businesses. Hu Yanyu was talking to the fifth brother Cao Bo, and Hu Yanyu ran back from outside.

This kid saw his sister Huyan Ronghua sitting and talking to a fairy sister at a glance, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he was surprised and happy. Hurriedly went over and asked his sister, "Rong Hua, who is this Heavenly Immortal Sister?"

Huyan Ronghua got up, pulled Cao Yanjiao up and said with a smile: "Brother, the daughter of the fifth uncle's family." Come on, Yan Jiao, this is my brother Hu Yanyu. ”

Hu Yanyu hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Yanjiao, this name is so beautiful." People are like their names, they look like fairies. I said, I have never seen such a beauty in the entire Taiyuan Mansion. Good sister, sit down, my brother will bring you delicious food. ”

After speaking, he ran to the wing room and brought a bag of dates, handed it to Cao Yanjiao with both hands, and patted Yanjiao's green onion fingers and jade skin: "Sister eat more dates, this is specially made by my family, and the officials and dignitaries of the entire Taiyuan City like my family's dates, eat them." ”

Yan Jiao was not polite, and stuffed one directly into her mouth, Jiao Didi flushed: "Thank you, brother." ”

Yo hey, just this thank you brother, it made Hu Yanyu get drunk suddenly. I couldn't help but help this Chengdu sister to look at it again and again, and I couldn't wait to take it into my arms and eat others.

Sister Huyan Ronghua has never seen her brother so affectionate to a girl, and she knows that her brother is moved by Cao Yanjiao, but the fifth uncle mentioned Li Siyuan, and my brother didn't know it yet.

She hurriedly pushed her brother aside and whispered, "The fifth uncle is asking my father to tell Li Siyuan that he will agree, and Yanjiao will be Li Siyuan's daughter-in-law." Brother, let me warn you first, don't be foolish. ”

A few days later, Li Siyuan came to Huyan's house and went straight to his uncle Hu Yanqi to ask a few questions, and the two had a lively conversation. At this time, Huyan Ronghua took Cao Yanjiao out and found an excuse to talk to his parents: "Dad, mother, my sister and I went to the street to buy some rouge." ”

As soon as Li Siyuan turned his head, he was immediately stunned and asked, "Rong Hua, whose daughter is this sister? ”

Huyan Ronghua came over and beat Li Siyuan: "Brother Siyuan, I haven't come to see Ronghua for so long, why did you ask me as soon as we met, my sister in Chengdu?

Li Siyuan stood up and twisted Huyan Ronghua's arm: "Unless you dare to beat me Li Siyuan, Huyan Ronghua, tell me, what is the name of my sister in Chengdu?"

Cao Yanjiao saw that Li Siyuan was seven feet nine inches long, with a heroic appearance, and he was really a god-like man, and he was already blushing, and came over to say a blessing: "General Li is famous, Chengdu woman Cao Yanjiao has disturbed you, don't blame it." ”

When Li Siyuan heard this, this Cao Yanjiao's sister is not only good-looking, but also so good at talking. Such a decent sentence also conceals his initiative, is it possible that he is also the daughter of a business tycoon?

was so shocked that Li Siyuan's face was also flushed: "Sister Yanjiao, I am fortunate to have a good meeting." The first time the little brother saw his sister, he didn't bring any good gifts, and the jade card I carried here was left for you to play with, and I will give you a handle another day, in exchange for this brand. ”

As he spoke, he took off his jade plate from his waist and stuffed it to Yan Jiao. Cao Yanjiao pushed twice, and Li Siyuan's divine power was restrained, and she was forced to stuff her into her hands.

Cao Yanjiao said a thousand blessings: "Thank you, Brother Siyuan, I went shopping on the street with Sister Rong Hua, you guys talk first, and my sister toasts my brother with a few glasses of wine at noon." ”

Li Siyuan was so happy that he couldn't help but agree. At noon, after Cao Yanjiao and Hu Yan Ronghua toasted, Li Siyuan felt more and more that this Yanjiao sister was too beautiful, and she spoke naturally and decently. If you marry into your own family, the backyard will be safe and sound.

immediately pulled his uncle Hu Yanqi and his aunt's eldest grandson Die aside, showing his heart and wanting to marry this sister. Hu Yanqi bowed his head slightly, and was about to speak.

The eldest grandson Die intercepted the conversation: "Heiyuan, it doesn't matter if you joke and make trouble, but if you want to marry someone seriously, you have a wife's room, and people can only make a second room in the past." You have to ask the girl about her father, and your aunt will try her best to match you. Besides, are you guaranteed to win Yan Jiao's heart?"

When Li Siyuan heard this, his scalp was a little big: "Auntie, I promise to use all means to win Yan Jiao's heart." But who is her father? How can she agree?"

The eldest grandson replied: "Her father is the thirteenth uncle of Baoying, the fifth brother Cao Bo, the famous tea seller of bird's tongue. Almost all of the bird's tongue tea in Taiyuan was brought by him, and this person admits death. ”

When Li Siyuan heard this, he immediately laughed: "Uncle, aunt, since you are righteous brothers, what kind of ambush are you fighting with your nephew? Tomorrow, I will call my father to come to your house and meet Uncle Cao." It's up to you two to be the matchmaker. This matter is settled, please help. ”

When Hu Yanqi and Changsun Die heard this, this kid was so confident, but he took our army. What happened between him and Yan Jiao?
