Chapter 360: Conspiracy

In the late days, the rivers and mountains are beautiful, and the spring breeze is fragrant with flowers and plants. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info mud melts swallows, sand warms sleeping mandarin ducks. (Note 1)

It's only the beginning of February, the warm wind has blown people sleepy, if you can be in this thick spring, in the rippling lake, under the new green weeping willows, hugging and sleeping, it is really a beautiful thing in the world.

It's a pity that good things don't last long, and the sorrow entrenched in the bottom of my heart is difficult to solve after all, and from time to time it will come to my heart and teach people to be sad.

There are always some ignorant people in the world, and when Li Fengyun and Du Ruyue were entangled, a purple-robed man came out of the edge of Taihu Lake and asked, "Your Excellency is General Li Fengyun and Li? ”

Li Fengyun frowned and asked, "Who is your master, why do I want to see him?"

The man said, "My master said you would be glad to see him!"

Li Fengyun and Du Ruyue glanced at each other, and Li Fengyun nodded and said, "You are taking us there." ”

The man led the two to a painting boat, Li Fengyun and Du Ruyue stepped on the painting boat, only to see one person standing by the window with his back to his back, and when he heard someone on the boat, he turned around and said with a smile: "General Li, do you still recognize me?"

Li Fengyun looked at it fixedly, how could he not recognize that this person had seen him when he was competing at the top of Tai, it was Qiu Xian, who had slashed the Xudao people of Yuanqingguan Town in Southern Chu.

Li Fengyun was a little displeased with this person's behavior, and said: "It turned out to be the Qiu gang leader of the Taihu Gang, I don't know what you are looking for me?"

Qiu Xian looked at Du Ruyue again, and said, "Miss Du, the scenery of Taihu Lake is good, why don't you take a look around first?" General Li rest assured, I know that Miss Du has not recovered from her serious injuries, but in this vicinity, Qiu dares to guarantee that Miss Du's safety is no problem. Qiu might as well say it directly, I just want to say a few words to General Li. ”

Li Fengyun was about to get angry, but was stopped by Du Ruyue, Du Ruyue said softly: "That's fine, I'll walk around!"

A steward led Du Ruyue off the painting boat.

Qiu Xian swept around, and the surrounding maids retreated, leaving only Li Fengyun and Qiu Xian in the painting boat.

"Why don't you sit down and talk?" Qiu Xian pointed to the table that had already been prepared in the painting boat, and said with a smile, "It's better to meet by chance, Qiu Mou is looking for two people, there is an important news to tell General Li, and at the same time there is a small request, I don't know if General Li is willing to agree?"

Li Fengyun came to the guest table, knelt down and sat down, Li Fengyun grabbed the fruit that had already been arranged on the table, took a bite, and said: "Gang Master Qiu, there is no one around now, why don't you say anything? I am willing to agree, and it depends on whether I can agree." ”

"Yes, General Li will definitely be able to! This small request is just a gesture for General Li. Qiu Xian said, "The general should know that whether it is the Taihu Gang or I, Qiu Xian, they are actually all working for Feng Chenwei and the Emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty." In fact, General Li should have guessed Qiu's small request. ”

Li Fengyun pondered for a moment and said coldly: "Could it be that you want the "Returning to the Tibetan Sutra"?"

"General Li is really smart!" Qiu Xian laughed, "Qiu is not greedy, after General Li translated the "Returning to the Tibetan Sutra", Qiu only asked for a copy, and nothing else. ”

"It's not a difficult request, but why should I give you a copy of the Returning to the Tibetan Sutra?" Li Fengyun asked coldly.

"How about Qiu exchanging some news?" replied Qiu Xian, "For example, I think General Li must be curious to know what happened to the little emperor of the Jin Kingdom who was stabbed in the imperial hunting grounds. ”

Li Fengyun was shocked in his heart, before going to Zhenzhou, he originally planned to come to Jiangnan to investigate the whereabouts of Blood Shura and investigate the case of the fire in Hexutang, but he was delayed by Du Ruyue's matter, but he didn't expect Qiu Xian to mention it first. The Xutang fire and the Xutang fire were originally committed by the same group, and the former was only to cover up the latter's scheme.

"Just one assassination case can't move me Li Fengyun, Gang Master Qiu should know that I am no longer the leader of Fengyunwei. Li Fengyun said quietly.

"Naturally, the little emperor of the Jin Kingdom has no eyes and no beads, and he abandons his good talents instead of using them, which is really a pity! If General Li is willing to come to our Southern Tang Dynasty, what is the position of the commander of the Fengyun Guard? Even if it is not impossible to be crowned king by splitting the soil. Qiu Xian shook his head and said, "It's a pity, I guess General Li refuses." Li Fengming invited him several times, but you didn't want to, so Qiu Mou didn't open his mouth. ”

Li Fengyun snorted coldly: "Gang Master Qiu, did you come to me today to say these inexplicable words? If so, please forgive Li Fengyun for his resignation." ”

After that, Li Fengyun was about to get up and leave.

Qiu Xian smiled: "Why should the general be in a hurry, since he is here, why don't you listen to Qiu's words?"

Li Fengyun said patiently: "If you have something to say, you don't have to go around in circles!"

"General Li is really straightforward, so in this case, Qiu Mou will first talk about the truth of the assassination in the hunting ground, just to make amends for the reluctance to ask. ”

The assassination of the Imperial Hunting Warehouse involved Blood Shura, and Li Fengyun also wanted to know it, so he couldn't help but move in his heart, and said, "Gang Master Qiu, please speak." ”

Qiu Xian said slowly: "General Li has investigated the assassination case in the Royal Hunting Ground, has he ever found out who did it?"

Li Fengyun shook his head and said, "Gang Master Qiu, please speak clearly." ”

Qiu Xian laughed twice and said: "This matter is not simple, Qiu is not afraid to tell you, my Fengchenwei of the Southern Tang Dynasty is involved in it, in addition, Khitan, Yonggu Palace, as well as the Taiping Army of the Jin State, and General Li Shouzhen, the commander of the Ma Army, are also involved." ”

"What?" Li Fengyun was a little surprised, it was not strange that Nantang and Khitan were involved, the condor shooter who was shot to death by him was quite famous in the Khitan, and the Khitan was inevitably involved. And the Southern Tang Dynasty has always colluded with the Khitan and joined forces to deal with the Central Plains Imperial Court, and it is not surprising that the Later Tang Dynasty was involved. But Qiu Xian said that Yonggu Palace and Li Shouzhen were also involved, and Li Fengyun was a little incomprehensible.

Yonggu Palace mainly recaptured the lost country, but the reason why the Later Tang Dynasty perished was inseparable from the Khitan, if it was not for the Khitan to help Shi Jingjiao, it was almost impossible for Shi Jingjiao to seize the country. It can be said that the master of the Yonggu Palace and the Khitan are enemies, how could the Yonggu Palace join forces with the Khitan to assassinate the little emperor?

Speaking of Li Shouzhen, it seems even more impossible, the little emperor trusted Li Shouzhen very much, not only appointed him as the envoy of the Taiping Army, but also guarded Yunzhou, knowing that Yunzhou was only a few days away from Feng, and could threaten the safety of Kaifeng at any time.

Not only that, but the little emperor also appointed Li Shouzhen as the commander of the horse army, that is, in principle, the cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty was under the control of Li Shouzhen. Such a person, although he has different intentions, should not have much ambition.

In terms of power and strength, Li Shouzhen is not as good as Liu Zhiyuan and Du Chongwei, if the little emperor is assassinated, what benefits can he get?

Could it be that Li Shouzhen is not able to do his best, and he also wants to rebel and become the emperor?

For a long time, Li Fengyun only thought that Du Chongwei and Li Shouzhen married because Du Chongwei wanted to win over Li Shouzhen, if what Qiu Xian said was true, I am afraid that things are not so simple.

However, why did Li Shouzhen think that he could compete with Liu Zhiyuan and Du Chongwei? In terms of prestige, strength, and power, Li Shouzhen could not compare with these two people, and assassinated the little emperor, wouldn't he make a wedding dress for these two people?

"Why should General Li be surprised?" Qiu Xian said, "There are still many things in the world that you can't think of, for example, General Li, you probably don't know that Li Shouzhen's son Li Tianyao is now in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he is discussing some unsightly things with Commander Li Fengming." ”

"Why are you telling me this?" asked Li Fengyun.

Qiu Xian tilted his head and said in surprise: "Doesn't General Li want to kill Li Tianyao?"

"Do you want to borrow my hand to get rid of Li Tianyao?" Li Fengyun finally understood that Qiu Xian would not let Du Ruyue stay.

Qiu Xian shook his head and said, "What does Li Tianyao's life and death have to do with me, but Li Tianyao is dead, and Li Fengming must be inseparable." General Lee, you don't feel sad for your old friend, do you?"

I see, it seems that there is a lot of grievance between Qiu Xian and Li Fengming.
