Chapter 54: Arrangement
Under the pressure of Xiu Wei, the long knife slowly fell into the sheath, and the jade flute slowly left the red lips.
The courtyard that had just been tense soon recovered to be light and light, and the dead leaves of the locust tree swirled and fell, and there were no ups and downs after falling to the ground.
"Ann...... Your Highness?!"
As Li Ye withdrew his cultivation as coercion, the commanders of Tsing Yi, who had been suffocated like pig's liver, finally regained their ability to speak and act, and they looked at Li Ye who was still smiling in the courtyard in disbelief, as if in a dream.
"That's right, it's the Lone King. You have always been good?" Li Ye responded with a smile, as if he was coming out to comfort his hard-working subordinates on a sunny afternoon.
The Tsing Yi were ecstatic at first, and their excitement was beyond words, but in an instant, they were all like mourners, and their faces were hard to see.
They didn't know when Li Ye came, but what they just said was very likely to be listened to by the other party, and it was all a great rebellion, how could they not anger Li Ye? With Li Ye's cultivation strength, it would be easy to kill them.
If they still have the courage to resist against Song Jiao, then they don't even have the heart to fight back against Li Ye, and the gap in strength is too big.
Li Ye's smile makes people feel like a spring breeze, but at this moment, the Tsing Yi are like winter, and they all bow down to the ground when they are in a panic, "I will wait for ten thousand deaths, Your Highness forgives your sins!"
At this time, they were still shocked: the princes all said that Li Ye had gone to the Immortal Realm, and he had indeed disappeared for a while, why did he suddenly appear here today?
They didn't have time to think about this problem, they were now terrified, and they could only urgently pray in their hearts that Li Ye would not kill them, although their words and deeds were enough to be killed.
Li Ye looked at Tsing Yi, who was kneeling in front of him, and said in a gentle voice: "You go deep into the enemy territory and work hard day and night for the great cause of the dynasty. ”
The Tsing Yi lowered their heads and looked at each other, and they all saw the doubts in each other's eyes. Everyone wisely chose to lie still on their stomachs, and they still confessed with all their mouths.
Their behavior just now was no different from the verdict of the Tsing Yi Yamen, how could Li Ye not punish them? I can't say it, I am just teasing them now.
Li Ye saw that everyone was trembling, looking like they were on the edge of the abyss, and he didn't force the other party to get up, these people were willing to kneel, so let them kneel. Although he understood their thoughts, and indeed had no intention of punishing the crime, the situation had reached the current situation after all, and it was better for them to kneel for a long time.
Li Ye stepped into the room and sat down where Song Jiao had sat before.
One of the walls of the room, though almost destroyed, has not collapsed, and the general structure is still intact and can be restored with a little repair.
Song Jiao followed into the room and sealed the room with aura, creating an effect similar to an enchantment, so that their next conversation would not be overheard by everyone, as it would most likely involve confidentiality.
As soon as Wu entered the house, Song Jiao glared at Li Ye fiercely: "Say! Where have you been fooling around these days! I can't even see a figure, I don't even give a letter, you know I have ...... How worried are we? Did you do this?!"
When she saw Li Ye ghostly appear in the courtyard, Song Jiao's surprise was not much less than that of Tsing Yi. Don't look at the way she looked like King An had never gone away when she faced other people just now, in fact, her heart was weaker than anyone else, and the tougher she became, it was just to hide her panic and convince herself that this was the truth.
Everyone panicked, and the reason why Song Jiao was stable was just because she had an unusual temperament and wanted to hold it in front of her subordinates. Now you don't have to worry about being seen by people outside, and your true form will be revealed immediately.
Li Ye smiled bitterly: "It's really not that I'm fooling around, I also have a hard time......
As he spoke, he explained the ins and outs of the matter to the other party, and at the same time did not forget to add his plan to pretend to be himself and take advantage of the situation to trap Li Maozhen and the princes of the world.
Song Jiao sat down on the other side of the table, and when Li Ye spoke, she leaned over and opened her eyes wide, looking at each other vigorously, as if she wanted to see Li Ye transparent.
After Li Ye finished speaking, seeing that the other party had not withdrawn his gaze, he felt a little embarrassed: "Aunt Song always looks at me like this, why is my plan not good?"
Song Jiao was finally willing to resume her sitting posture, but she didn't forget to let out a long snort, "I'm looking to see if you're a fake! Who can guarantee that you weren't sent by Li Maozhen? ”
Li Ye laughed dumbly, he didn't know what to say for a while, and only after half a sound did he hold back a sentence: "Aunt Song is really thoughtful." ”
Immediately, he changed his words: "How did Aunt Song confirm that I was true?"
Clinker Song Jiao raised her round chin and said lightly: "I haven't confirmed it yet." ”
Li Ye: "......"
"But I have a way. Song Jiao quickly stared at Li Ye with shining eyes, "And I promise that there will be no mistakes, and I can verify your identity in an instant!"
Li Ye said embarrassedly: "What method?"
Song Jiao was full of interest and eager to try, looking Li Ye up and down with a particularly strange and ambiguous look, as if she was going to strip him naked, "I watched you grow up, and I know that there is a black mole at the base of your thigh, you take off your robe, we will know it at a glance!"
Li Ye stiffened, and immediately argued: "Where did you watch me grow up? You rarely showed up before!"
Song Jiao's eyes were still eager: "So what, anyway, I hugged you when you were a child, and I know your details!"
Li Ye instantly felt a feeling of shortness of breath, as if he was a head shorter than Song Jiao, and spontaneously felt a sense of shame that he had been stripped naked-the thin young man was covered in red fruits, and his arms trembled in the face of a laughing "tiger wolf" woman.
Seeing Li Ye's gaze, Song Jiao's eyes suddenly showed schadenfreude and cunning.
So Li Ye understood that the other party was just playing tricks on him.
Li Ye was suddenly annoyed and angry. But he didn't have a seizure, and only sighed in the end. The more Song Jiao is like this, the more it proves that she was very worried before, so she did not hesitate to play tricks on herself in this unintelligent way at this moment, in exchange for her psychological balance.
......
"How do you want us to cooperate with you?" Song Jiao asked the main question.
Li Ye had already planned for this, so he replied quickly: "Tell Li Zhen, Cui Keli, Liu Dazheng, and Shangguan Chengcheng the news that I am still in the mortal world, and let them hold the existing territory." Li Maozhen, Gao Piao, and Wang Jian still need some preparation time to transfer troops to the Central Plains, and now as long as they ensure that there is no internal chaos, there is no big problem. ”
Once the war began, it was unrealistic to expect an army without Li Ye to resist the invasion, but for a period of time, as long as the enemy army did not arrive for a day, the Pinglu army would not have civil strife. Now we need to guard against two points, first, the ministers and generals under Li Ye's command usurped power and established themselves; second, the feudal towns that were subdued by Li Ye refused to obey the order and re-seized the localities.
Li Ye continued: "Under my command, there are only four people who have the ability to stand on my own behalf, Li Zhen, Cui Keli, Liu Dazheng, and Shangguan Chengcheng, and the princes of the rest of the towns are at most unconvinced and take control of their own towns. As long as Li Zhen and the other four are not chaotic and still united, in a short period of time, the princes of the feudal town will only wait and see. ”
"Gao Biao and the others will not send troops too quickly, but they will not be too slow, and when Li Maozhen puts me back, all problems will naturally be solved. ”
Song Jiao thought about it and nodded in agreement with Li Ye's judgment and layout.
Li Zhen went out of the town of Hedong, Cui Keli was a local wealthy family in Pinglu, which were the two largest forces, and Liu Dazheng and Shangguan Chengcheng controlled the army and also had the capital to stand on their own. But as long as they know that Li Ye is still there, with the loyalty of the four of them to Li Ye, at least in the short term, there will be no problems.
It is not difficult to convince Li Zhen and Shangguan Chengcheng that he is still in the mortal world, they just need to use the magic weapon to leave an image later.
Li Ye continued: "In addition, you quickly sent someone to Jinyang to create an identity of Li Congjing, so that the Phantom Sound Workshop would go to investigate. ”
Going to Jinyang to verify Li Congjing's identity is what the Phantom Sound Workshop must do, and it is also the reason why Li Ye is in a hurry to come out tonight. Only by ensuring that this forged identity is not revealed and nothing abnormal can be found, Li Ye can stay in Chang'an.
After explaining everything to Song Jiao, and using the magic weapon to leave an image, the two left the room and came to the courtyard again.
The Tsing Yi who were kneeling on the ground still didn't get up, and they still looked like they were walking on thin ice.
Li Ye glanced at everyone and said lightly: "The Great Commander of Song told King Gu that there are indeed many difficulties in lurking in the enemy realm, and under the heavy pressure, he suddenly heard the false news spread by the princes, and it was inevitable that he would panic for a while, lose his mind, and do what he shouldn't do. For the sake of your years of hard work, the lonely king will spare you this time, and he will not take an example. In the future, follow the Song Dynasty to lead a good life and make meritorious contributions, and the Lone King will not treat you badly. ”
When the Tsing Yi commanders heard this, they were a little relieved, and they bowed together: "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Great Commander!"
Li Ye nodded with Song Jiao, didn't say anything more, got up and flew out of the courtyard, and disappeared into the night.
When they saw that Li Ye's figure had completely disappeared, the Tsing Yi people got up one after another, looking at Aunt Song standing in the courtyard with a cold face, everyone was embarrassed and ashamed.
In any case, Li Ye is still in the mortal world, which is exciting good news. As long as the leader is still there, who wants to make a fuss about nothing, take their lives for no reason, and take risks to seek refuge with someone else?
Lu Shen led everyone to salute Song Jiao and confess their crimes.
Song Jiao had to give everyone a gag order, so that they could reveal Li Ye's secret in the mortal world. Fortunately, the people in the courtyard are all commanders of the Tsing Yi Yamen, and they have just experienced a fright, so there is no need to worry about their lax mouths - at least there will be no problems for a while.
......
Returning to the heavy building of the Phantom Sound Workshop, after confirming that everything was not abnormal, Li Ye accepted his own cultivation and resealed his power into the Heavenly Mirror, maintaining his identity as an ordinary person.
After carefully looking at the scarlet dwarf filled with the fragrance of fat powder for a while, Li Ye finally couldn't convince himself to go to sleep on it, so he could only return to the table and lie on his stomach to prepare for the next night.
So far, no one has come to "deal with" him, and Li Ye can basically be sure that Li Maozhen really intends to let him pretend to be himself. Next, as long as you pass the training and assessment, and do not expose any abnormalities, the next plan should be able to be implemented smoothly.
Early the next morning, when it was just dawn and Li Ye was still sleeping, a female cultivator rushed into the room.
