Chapter 101: Autumn is not yet
"You only know that when Li Congke's soldiers raised Fengxiang, Fengxiang's officials and people stopped Li Congke and begged Li Congke to worship Li Congke as the commander, but do you know why this happened? As for saying that Li Congcao is loved by Fengxiang's officials and the people, I don't think you will believe it based on your experience and IQ. Li Maozhen and Li Congcao father and son have been running Fengxiang for many years, and many officials have become a community of interests with the Li family, and it is understandable that they came forward to ask Li Congke to worship Li Congcao as the handsome, because if Li Congcao is the handsome, they can get the greatest benefit; But what about the people? Although Li Maozhen is very prestigious in Fengxiang, prestige does not necessarily mean that the people support you, and after Li Congcao took over this Fengxiang Festival Envoy, even his prestige has decreased a lot, not to mention, when Li Congke rebelled, Li Congshu was thousands of miles away from the balance to be the Festival Envoy, and they could still think of Li Congshu who had been away for three or four years? Guo Wei said with a mocking face.
"You mean that these were not planned by Li Congxi, but the person you just mentioned?" Qin Zhen asked tentatively.
"Yes, his name is Qiu Weiran, he is Li Congxi's strategist, good at strategy, has a strong control over the situation as a whole, and is a person with terrible abilities. It can be said that Li Congke was able to win the throne in Luoyang, and he has a deep relationship with this person. But he is unusually low-key, many people don't know this person, or even if they know him, they will unconsciously ignore him. Li Congcao can't do this kind of layout in Longxi, not only because of his ability and ambition, but also because of Li Congshu's character, who can do this alone or influence Li Congcao to do this, all I know is Qiu Weiran. Guo Wei said solemnly.
"Qiu Weiran's father Autumn is Li Maozhen's strategist, Li Maozhen can operate in Fengxiang for more than 30 years, becoming a veritable King of Qi in Fengxiang, and Autumn can be said to have made great contributions. Qiu Weiran has been very smart since he was a child, and he has won the true legend of autumn, and he is better than blue when he was a teenager. In Li Maozhen's later years, in order to consolidate his rule, he was ready to make a move on Wang Jian in Xichuan, which was opposed by Qiu Weiran, who was still a teenager, and the reason for Qiu Weiran was that Wang Jian was in Xichuan when it was vigorous, compared to all parts of the Central Plains, the land of Bayu experienced fewer wars and turmoil, and was relatively stable, and the strength of Xichuan was not weaker than Fengxiang, and the geographical location of the land of Bayu was extremely special, the mountains were high and dense, and the precipitous and abnormal, the Fengxiang army traveled long distances and fought in guest places, without the slightest advantage, and more importantly, A few years ago, the Fengxiang army fought one after another with Zhu Wen's Later Liang Army and Li Keyong's Hedong Army, and the army was already tired and the people were tired, and it was not suitable for foreign wars in the near future, perhaps because Qiu Weiran was too young at the time, and his suggestions did not attract Li Maozhen's attention, and the more important reason should be Li Maozhen's personal desires and political achievements, he did not follow Qiu Weiran's advice, and as a result, Li Maozhen was defeated by Xichuan Wang Jian, and the strength of Fengxiang Mansion was greatly damaged. ”
"Since Qiu Weiran can see the problem, as a senior strategist, Qiu should also be able to see it, why didn't Qiu Qiu speak out to stop Li Maozhen at that time?" Qin Zhen asked.
"People may become more sleek when they get older, autumn has followed Li Maozhen for so many years, and knows Li Maozhen's strength, although he usually adopts many of his suggestions, but when Li Maozhen makes a decision, no one can question it, so autumn knows that it is useless to persuade him again, it is better to assist Li Maozhen wholeheartedly, and can achieve a better result in the battle of Xichuan, but manpower can't resist the general trend after all. Or maybe the autumn is the same as Li Maozhen, with the intention of fighting, and wants to create a great cause when Li Maozhen can still heat up in this round of red sun, after all, Li Congcao also grew up in autumn, as a strategist, he can't see hope from Li Congxi. Haha, I've told you so much, it's all my guess, after all, it's impossible to go around in autumn with such a private thought, right? Even if he did, I wouldn't know what I would, but if it was a guess, I think I should be five or six points sure. ”
Qin Zhen's face was black, he didn't expect that the usually serious and cautious Lord Duwei would have such a gossip side, but Qin Zhen also knew that Guo Wei could tell him such a secret guess, which was his extreme trust in him, and he also hoped that he could know more about Qiu Weiran.
Qin Zhen intuitively felt that he and this Qiu Weiran would definitely have a lot of intersection in the future, and every time he understood one more point now, he would take the initiative one more point in the future.
Then, Guo Weiyou sighed: "Speaking of which, Li Maozhen is indeed a hero of the previous generation, after he failed in the battle with Xichuan Wang Jian, he did not snub Qiu Weiran because of his face, but confessed to Qiu Weiran his arrogant and reckless mistakes, and since then he has been courteous to Qiu Weiran, can you imagine an old man in his sixties bowing to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy?" And this old man is also the famous envoy of the Fengxiang Festival, the king of Qin who was divided by the imperial court. Even if you know that you are buying people's hearts, there are a few people in this world who can put down their bodies and buy people's hearts like this. Perhaps, after that, Qiu Weiran will be able to assist Li Congshu wholeheartedly, and it has a lot to do with Li Maozhen's courtesy to him. ”
Qin Zhen nodded and said in agreement: "It seems that it is not unreasonable for Li Maozhen to occupy the place of Fengxiang and stand tall for decades in this troubled era where there are many feudal towns and there are endless battles. Then, Qin Zhen teased again: "However, listening to Lord Duwei's tone, it seems that Li Congcao is a little disdainful of the current Fengxiang Festival." ”
Guo Wei laughed at himself: "Hey, this is also what the two of us said in private, it is indeed a bit funny to say, no matter how I look down on others, they are all temperances, and I may not be in the scope of others." But when it comes to ability, I do look down on it, and I'm blind to the good inheritance left by his father. ”
Qin Zhen looked at the glint that flashed in Guo Wei's eyes when he talked about Li Congxi's Fengxiang Festival, and his heart was silent, he couldn't say to Guo Wei Don't worry, you will be the founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty in the future, but you are much more awesome than Li Congxi, even if he can say this, Guo Wei has to believe it, besides, this is the historical change process in his memory, but now there is an outlier like him, how the future will develop, no one can predict, at least in that historical time and space, Guo Wei is impossible to sit down and talk to Qin Zhen like this.
"Lord Duwei, the more you say that, the more curious I become, what kind of person is this Li Congxi?" Qin Zhen asked with a smile.
"How to put it, to put it simply, this Li Congshu is a good person, an excellent person, and very good at calligraphy and painting, but he is not a good festival envoy. It can only be said that he was reincarnated in the wrong child, if he was reincarnated in an ordinary official world, he would definitely be a beautiful son, but he was reincarnated in the Li family. ”
Listening to Guo Wei's description, how could Qin Zhen feel so familiar. Presumably, when the other brother of the Li family and the brother of the Zhao family see this Li Congshu, they will definitely be a confidant and call him a big brother, although Li Congcao is far less famous than these two, but he is better than the old qualifications.
Guo Wei continued: "Although Li Congcao is Li Maozhen's son, he is not similar to Li Maozhen in terms of ambition, ability, personality, etc., not only is it not similar, but it is very different. Li Maozhen is ambitious and decisive, but Li Congcao has a soft and honest personality and likes elegance, and is not interested in killing at all; He planted a lot of flowers in Qishan, whenever the flowers were blooming in May and June, he would invite the elegant celebrities around Fengxiang to drink and enjoy the flowers under the moon, those people were drunk and spit on his clothes and hats, he didn't care, there was no disgust on his face; When the subordinates around him made mistakes, he never reprimanded and punished, causing those subordinates to become more and more emboldened, and even blatantly used his name to collect wealth and prestige outside; The atmosphere of Fengxiang Mansion has also become loose and lazy. ”
Qin Zhen said with a smile: "Listening to Lord Duwei say this, this Li Congshu is indeed a rare good person, if he was born in the family of the eunuch in the year of peace, combined with his romantic talent and generous character, he will definitely be able to win a good reputation, maybe he can be famous for future generations, but it is a pity that he was born in the wrong era, and he was born in the wrong family." ”
"Yes, now is an era when people are good and you are bullied and horses are good at being ridden, like Li Congxi, if it weren't for the strong forces left by Li Maozhen behind him and Qiu Weiran who have been supporting him behind him, he would have been eaten and even his bones would have been left."
Qin Zhen suddenly said strangely: "Lord Duwei, it stands to reason that even if you have done a separate drive in Fengxiang Qishan, but at that time, Li Congcao had already transferred out of Fengxiang, and many things were also considered secret, it is impossible for the roots of the people who are not at their core level to know, how do you know so well?" ”
Guo Wei looked at Qin Zhen, his eyes were full of appreciation, and he was very relieved: "It's really enjoyable to chat with you, and you can always capture key information from our conversation." ”
"When Li Congcao went to be the envoy of the Tianping Festival, Qiu Weiran did not go with him, Qishan is his old nest, he needs a trustworthy and capable person to help him guard the old nest, and I happened to be in Qishan at that time."
"You mean you're familiar with Qiu Weiran?" Qin Zhen asked.
Guo Wei laughed and said: "Not only is it familiar, we can be regarded as very good friends." Speaking of which, the two of us are of the same age, I lead the army all the year round, and I have some opinions on the things on the battlefield, and although Qiu Weiran is not very proficient in military affairs, he has read a lot and knows a lot, and the two of us often complement each other when we talk, so we introduce each other as confidants. ”
