Chapter 29: The Secret of the Li Mansion
Another door.
This time there is a hall directly behind the door.
A hall of hundreds of square meters is displayed on the left and right with a large number of bookshelves piled high with thick books.
On the middle wall is a portrait of a person, the person is sitting on a carved mahogany chair, although he is dressed in civilian clothes, his eyebrows are cold, and his martial arts are extraordinary, which makes Li Yisong feel a sense of déjà vu.
Strangely, the painting does not have any inscriptions or inscriptions......
Beneath the portrait is a desk.
Co-authored Li Jiazhu's great energy, just to hide a library?
Li Yisong stepped forward.
I saw a rectangular agarwood box on the desk, without buckles and locks, and I didn't know what was inside.
Li Yisong looked at Li Chengqian strangely.
I saw Li Chengqian and Li Yongchang leaning over and bowing.
"Yisong, come and worship Longsheng Gong." Li Chengqian said in a low voice.
Li Yisong's face was full of suspicion, but he still learned from him and bowed.
Li Chengqian looked at Li Yisong and bowed, slowly sat down on the Taishi chair next to him, and said, "Yongchang, you can tell him." ”
"Yes, Master!"
Li Yongchang nodded slightly and said, "Duke Longsheng is the young emperor!" ”
"What?" Li Yisong was taken aback, of course he knew who the young emperor was, but didn't the young emperor Li Chongmao inexplicably die in Liangzhou, where he was stationed, 2 years after the Tanglong coup?
"No wonder you're weird. The young emperor was fortunate to be rescued by the righteous man, but for the sake of the overall situation, he had to fake his death. ”
Li Yongchang's retinue Li Chongmao was rescued by a mysterious person, faked his death to deceive the imperial court, and later incarnated as the Duke of Longsheng, established the Bafang Society, secretly expanded his strength, and waited for the opportunity to enter Chang'an.
The more Li Yisong listened, the bigger his head became.
In the official history, Li Chongmao is indeed dead.
And he has a weak personality and no political acumen, how can he develop a secret organization in an attempt to restore it?
Who is this mysterious man?
What is the identity of the Li family in Lanzhou?
In the historical records of the previous life, the leader of the Bafang Society never showed up, could it be this Longsheng Gong?
If you don't cross, according to the urine sex of Li Lao Er in the original history, it is estimated that he will be killed by the boss at the beginning.
The head of the Li family naturally became Li Siyuan.
"You are actually the young emperor's people?" Li Yisong took a deep breath and looked at the two people in front of him with a complicated expression.
"We should say." Old Man Li put away the golden scepter, clenched his fists and corrected to the south.
Li Yongchang explained to Li Yisong: "The head of the family has contributed a lot to the saint in recent years, and the Longsheng Duke has specially approved it to enjoy the five altar level and report directly to the inner government. ”
Li Yisong was a little stunned and looked at Li Yongchang blankly.
"Yisong doesn't know much about matter, you can tell me in detail." The old man commanded.
"Yes, Master."
Li Yongchang agreed, and continued to Li Yisong: "Under the rule of Duke Longsheng, there are eight organizations: 'Four Associations', 'Two Mansions', 'One Army', and 'One Palace', so it is called 'Bafang Society'. ”
"Our Li Family Chamber of Commerce is one of the 'Four Associations', and the other three chambers of commerce are all behemoths, I heard that the leaders of the Chamber are all at the level of the Six Altars, and they are led by the head of the Inner Mansion at night, but we have no right to know which three they are."
"The 'Two Mansions' are the 'Tianluo Mansion' that is responsible for intelligence and the 'Death Blade' that is responsible for punishment, and the leaders are all at the level of the Seven Altars, and they are also led by the head of the Inner Mansion Ye Nameless."
"'One Army' and 'One Palace' refer to the Red Flame Army and the White Deer Academy, the leaders are all at the Eight Altar level, and they are directly controlled by Duke Longsheng. I heard that most of the people in the White Deer Academy Palace are in the imperial court and local officials, but the list is also confidential. ”
"This Nima is directly a small court." Li Yisong said secretly.
"What, scared?" Old Man Li slowly sat down on the Taishi chair behind the desk.
Li Yisong shook his head, "It's not true, at most it's a little surprised." ”
"When I was young, I was young and frivolous, and I committed a capital crime, and it was the night master who rescued me to keep me alive. It was also under the recommendation of the night manager that he met Long Shenggong. As if reminiscing about the past, Old Man Li said slowly, "Over the years, Duke Longsheng has treated my Li family well, and I have also sworn to do my best to help Duke Longsheng succeed." ”
Grandpa paused, and then said: "It's been ten years, and the organizational power has become bigger and bigger, but ...... Longsheng Gong ...... He's changed......"
"The head of the house! Don't talk about it. Li Yongchang clenched his fists and said.
Li Yisong listened quietly.
"Yongchang is the son of my old man, and his father blocked the arrow for me in Liangzhou back then......"
"Head of the house!"
Mr. Li talked a lot.
Including what excuse they used to take root in Lanzhou, and how they took the three clan uncles to lay down this family business.
Except for the person in front of him, no one in the Li family knew this secret.
The old man can tell him about it.
The intent is already clear.
What's more, Li Yisong found that the old man's voice was getting weaker and weaker.
"Father, I'd better help you go to rest first." Li Yisong looked at the old man in front of him with a complicated expression.
Although he doesn't have any feelings for Old Man Li.
Old Man Li waved his hand.
"Today's Siyuan wedding, in order to deal with the white old ghosts, I used a secret method to temporarily protect my heart, and when the true qi of my heart is dissipated, I should also go below to accompany your mother......" Speaking of Li Yisong's biological mother, a trace of guilt flashed in Old Man Li's eyes.
Li Yisong was slightly stunned.
But looking at Master Li's state at the moment, he does have a bit of an explanation for the future.
Old Man Li sighed, shook his head and said, "Your brother has gone astray, and he can't blame ......others for this fate."
"It's not easy to sit in the position of the head of the Li family! You need to be careful in the future, and don't rush to leave the organization. ”
"You have to act on the opportunity......"
Li Yisong nodded silently and glanced at the three letters on the desk next to him.
The content of the epistle is much the same.
This is the secret letter that the old man is going to send to the general altar of the Octagon Society!
The first letter was for Li Yisong to take over as the head of the Li Family Chamber of Commerce, the second letter was replaced by Li Siyuan, and the third letter was ...... Li Yongchang?
Li Yisong suddenly understood.
At this time, Li Yongchang stepped forward and picked up two other letters.
Throw it into a brazier and burn it to fly ashes.
Old Man Li slowly raised his hand, pointed to the bookshelf and continued: "As for the surrounding bookshelves, there are all the archives of the past ten years, remember to take a look at it after you take this burden, remember, don't be emotional!" ”
"Yongchang!"
"I'm here, head of the house!"
"Whether that thing should be handed in or not is up to Yisong to decide."
Li Yongchang nodded silently.
"I'm sleepy, I need to sleep for a while......"
Old Man Li sat on the Taishi chair and slowly closed his eyes.
His aura also gradually weakened.
Li Yisong and Li Yongchang looked at the old man in front of them speechlessly.
It seems that the old man has been ready for a long time.
Even if he doesn't make any trouble today, he will choose one of the three.
Took over the position of head of the Li family.
Li Yongchang said: "Son, don't you have anything to ask?" ”
Li Yisong waved his hand and said, "I'll talk about other things later, let the old man rest in peace first." ”
The two stood in the secret room for a long time.
Until the old man's breathing died away and his heartbeat stopped completely.
