Chapter 6: Follow the trend
At the entrance of the palace.
As soon as the guards arrived, they went straight in, but quickly retreated, and the leader of the guards looked ugly.
Seeing that Zhu Di was not arrested, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: The fourth child is still quite clever, and fortunately, he was clever and ran away in advance.
Back home, Li Qing sat under the fruit tree, completely immersed in his own world.
The iced sour plum soup, watermelon, and herbal tea that Wanling gave him, seeing that Mr. didn't move, knew that he was thinking about something very important, so he walked away lightly.
She guessed correctly, Li Qing was indeed thinking about something very important.
ββMing National Fortune!
At present, the general trend has been achieved, and the rebellion of the vassal king is ironclad, even if he kills three superlatives, Zhu Yunwen will find someone else to replace them.
Because Zhu Yunwen also wants to cut the domain, and he thinks more than anyone else, he will only listen to remarks that are conducive to cutting the domain.
Li Qing has already seen this thoroughly.
He secretly calculated: Since the big war is inevitable, let the fourth child win easier!
Li Qing can see that Zhu Yunwen is not the material for being an emperor.
Although Zhu Yunwen is a corporal, has a good temper, and does not punish harsh laws, how can the person sitting on the throne with tens of millions of Li people judge by his personal character?
Lao Zhu is not a good person, or even a villain, but you can't say that he is not a good emperor.
The fourth child is not a good person, but he is also a really good emperor.
The emperor influences a country, and even influences future generations, and in comparison, the aspect of private morality is not worth mentioning.
Li Qingyu sighed and said in his heart: "The last time Lao Zhu asked me to protect him, is it Da Ming or Zhu Yunwen?"
Damn, I don't make it clear.
Forget it, let's take care of it all! β
At the moment when he made up his mind, Li Qing's whole person was transparent, this time, he didn't plan to fight, and was ready to take advantage of the situation, so as to minimize the disaster.
Li Qing has no concept of loyalty to the monarch, besides, they are all the species of the old Zhu family, who is the emperor is different?
Speaking of Zhu Dijing's martyrdom, I have to mention one person, the first generation of the god of war of the Ming Dynasty.
- Li Jinglong!
Before coming to Daming, he thought that Li Jinglong was a straw bag, but after he came, he found that he was really there.
However, straw bales are straw bales, Li Qing is still sure of Li Jinglong in history, and when he beat Zhu Di, he was forced to release the water!
An army of 500,000 fights a small Beiping City, as long as the head is carried on the shoulder, not the tumor, how can there be any reason to lose?
He has experienced the battlefield, and the commander's command is indeed particularly important, but when the difference in strength is more than ten times, or even dozens of times, it is difficult for anyone to come.
Don't say that Zhu Di is a blue jade, even if it is white, he has to stop cooking.
Li Qing stood up and shouted: "Girl, I'm out of the house, and I'm not at home for dinner." β
β¦β¦
The Mansion of the Duke of Cao.
When Li Qing arrived, Li Jinglong was drinking alone, and it could be seen that he was in a very bad mood.
"Brother Li is here!" Li Jinglong waved his subordinates away, "Are you getting better?" β
"It's better." Li Qing smiled, "Why do you drink alone?" β
"I'm panicking."
"This wound on your face ......" Li Qing said with a funny smile, "Are you fighting with Lan Yu again?" β
"Well, it's not that I can't beat him, but I didn't fight back." Li Jinglong's mouth was stiff, and then, he drank another cup and said bitterly, "Lan Yu said that I am a traitor to Xungui, which is not bad at all;
I'm a fucking traitor, but that's not what I intended!
It's the emperor... It was Emperor Taizu who asked me to do this. β
He looked indignant, "Damn, now I am self-defeating and noble, and I have become a commodity who eats inside and outside, and I am not a person inside and outside!"
arrested Uncle Zhou Wang, Uncle Dai Wang, Uncle Qi Wang, and Uncle Xiang Wang...... Alas! β
Li Jinglong's face was full of decadence, "Alas, I have no energy to live, and I don't dare to die, it's not that I'm timid, but I don't have the face to see my father, and when I see Emperor Taizu, I knew that guy was so ruthless, and I wouldn't stand on his side when I said anything." β
Li Qing said secretly: "No wonder Li Jinglong will release water when he is in trouble, the crux of his daring is here!" β
After pondering for a moment, he asked, "If King Yan rebels and the emperor asks you to put down the rebellion, what should you do?" β
"Swallow ......"
"Shhhh Li Qing covered his mouth and said angrily, "I'll make an analogy." β
"Whew, you're scared to death." Li Jinglong glared at him hatefully, "Don't go, whoever you love will go, I won't go anyway." β
"What if the emperor has to let you go?"
Li Jinglong frowned, looked at Li Qing with a smile, and said suspiciously: "Brother Li came out of the palace, right?" β
"No, at home."
Li Jinglong couldn't guess what Li Qing meant for a while, and said bluntly: "Brother Li, I treat you as a brother, don't stab me." β
"Am I that kind of person?" Li Qing smiled, "It's not because you're in a bad mood and bragging about you, your mouth is in my ears, and when you get out of this door, it's as if nothing happened." β
Li Jinglong looked at Li Qing directly, Li Qing looked back at him very indifferently, for a long time, he nodded lightly: "If I go to quell the rebellion, I want to... I shouldn't be able to win against King Yan. β
"What if you were given an army of 200,000?"
"I can't win, I don't have that ability." Li Jinglong shook his head and said, "King Yan uses soldiers all year round, and I am just talking about soldiers on paper. β
"Half a million."
"Can't win, can't win at all." Li Jinglong shook his head.
They are all scene people, and it is boring to say too white, Li Qing already understood what Li Jinglong meant, so he didn't ask again.
And Li Jinglong didn't understand what Li Qing meant, but he also vaguely guessed a little, after all, Li Qing has been to Beiping too often over the years.
Neither of them talked about the topic again, just drank wine, cup after cup.
It wasn't until the end of the show that Li Jinglong said meaningfully: "Brother Li's heart is a little ambitious!" β
Li Qing knew that Li Jinglong was tempting, but he also understood that he had to get to the bottom of it, so he said:
"It's not interesting to be gentle, but it's good to be wild at all."
Li Jinglong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he made another temptation, "Is it what I thought, brother?" β
As he spoke, he dipped his wine and wrote the word 'north' on the table.
Li Qing said directly: "It's what you think." β
At this moment, Li Jinglong's face changed completely, and he asked in a low voice, "For what?" β
Li Qing dipped his wine and wrote down the word 'it'.
β¦β¦
When Li Qing returned home, he never complained about his illness and did not go to court, and spent all day at home playing the piano, tasting tea, and exploring the secluded ......
He was waiting, but fortunately he didn't wait too long, only five days later, Li Jinglong came.
When the two came to the pavilion, Red Sleeves offered herbal tea and withdrew, and then the two started a dumb riddle.
"Brother Li, I've been thinking about it for the past few days, and I feel that ...... It's hard!
It's so hard! β
"What's the difficulty?" Li Qing asked.
"You can't lose, you can't lose at all." Li Jinglong shook his head.
Li Qing took a sip of tea and quipped, "You're quite confident." β
"Nonsense." Li Jinglong glared and snorted, "When I don't know the soldiers? β
"......" Li Qing took out an empty cup from the tea tray, added tea to it twice, paused, lifted the teapot and added it until it overflowed.
Li Jinglong was stunned for a long time before he understood what Li Qing wanted to express, and frowned: "Brother Li, you are too idealistic, and the tea in the back is yellow." β
"Not necessarily!" Li Qing said lightly, "Think about it, are all the people standing in that hall yellow?" β
Li Jinglong was stunned and did not refute again.
Zhu Yunwen cut the domain, and completely forced Xungui to a dead end, and Wenchen became more and more domineering, and in less than a year, he had a situation of riding on Xungui's neck.
Coupled with the nobles and vassal kings, the relationship between the layers of cutting is constantly unreasonable and chaotic......
At this time, his mind was also lively, but he had a family and a room, and he was already a national prince, so he quickly came to his senses and said softly: "I will not betray you, and I will help when necessary, but I will not come forward to help you." β
After a pause, he took out an envelope from his arms, "I've burned it after reading it, I haven't been here today." β
After that, he didn't let Li Qing send him off, turned his head and left.
β¦β¦
Li Qing returned to the room and tied the door, and slowly opened the envelope given by Li Jinglong.
At the top of the letter, two names are particularly eye-catching: Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, and Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding!
The founding of the six princes and twenty-eight marquis, only these two are still alive, and their influence in the army is immeasurable.
Li Qing perked up and continued to look down.
[Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, was Xu Da's subordinate, and King Yan was Xu Da's son-in-law, and the two were often called uncles and nephews in the army......
Wuding Marquis Guo Ying, Guo Ying's sister married Emperor Taizu, Guo Ying's eldest son married Princess Yongjia, Guo Ying is not only Emperor Taizu's brother-in-law, but also Emperor Taizu's sons and daughters;
Although Guo Ying is a marquis, his influence and appeal in the army are greater than that of Guogong, and he is actually the first person at the moment......]
