Chapter 175: Hidden Scheming
Li Shimin nodded, and after a long silence, he sighed: "Thousands of troops are easy to get, and it is difficult to find one." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info not to mention what the situation in the world is, just the situation I am in at the moment has reached a very node. If I don't fight back, I may be devoured by them!"
Yuan Tiangang heard this: "Could it be that they have joined forces?"
Li Shimin nodded and said: "Although they didn't put the matter of joining forces on the table, they have a tacit understanding. Yuan Tiangang said with a solemn expression: "What is the son going to do?" Li Shimin said: "For the time being, bet on Li Xuan to crack the bet of their alliance." If he can really shoulder such a heavy responsibility, my Jianghu plan can be regarded as a big step, if he fails my 'Corporal Lixian's heart, I believe that with his personality, he will not take refuge in the other party. We'll either have one more right-hand man or one less rival. Hey....... This is also the reason why I promised Bing Mei to come forward to ask the repentant host to help him heal and recover. Of course, Li Xuan saved us, and in turn it was the right thing for us to save him. Ha ha...... This is a good thing to do, and no matter what, it's good for us. Mr. Yuan, what do you think?"
Yuan Tiangang nodded and said, "Understand the mood of the child." Hey, the opponent has been orchestrating for years, and you've only started since last year, and the stakes are very bearable. After a pause, he said, "Do you remember that I once said that Wuqu Xing is divided into General Shuai Wuxing and Baihong Wuxing...... Hey...... The White Rainbow Martial Star is the most powerful evil star in the world. Therefore, he may not be able to pick up the burden of maintaining the stability of the entire rivers and lakes, but he can change the pattern with the power of one person. ”
Li Shimin said: "You mean ......"
Yuan Tiangang said: "The commander can command thousands of troops and horses, even in the face of tens of millions of dead soldiers, he will also command in the middle of talking and laughing." And the white rainbow, the momentum is like a flying rainbow, and when he doesn't make a move, he is as silent as a wood, and if he makes a move, he will definitely be a blockbuster. Such a person is the best candidate to capture the thief and capture the king to carry out a quick knife beheading. And this Li Xuan is the fate of the evil star who is desperate and brave, killing people and leaving blood in ten steps!" Li Shimin was slightly stunned and said: "Since he has such a role, why does Mr. ask me to hand over the banner of provoking the stability of the rivers and lakes to him...... And I want to talk to him about chivalry, loyalty, faithfulness, and equality.' ”
Yuan Tiangang smiled and said: "Don't you need this eight-character mantra if you are alone? Childe, don't you see that this Li Xuan is upright and cannot be driven by interests? Alas...... It's easy to say what you can, but it's hard for someone like him. ”
Li Shimin sighed: "This person is indeed righteous and awe-inspiring, although he is injured, he is still calm. After a pause, he asked: "Mr. Yuan, you concluded that Bai Hongwuxing entered the WTO three months ago, and now that you have met him in person, can you help me determine the future situation." Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly when he heard this: "Wanchuan is different, fixed in the world, and there is no way to change, not to mention the flowing and changing stars! If you want to accurately predict the future situation, you still need to constantly observe the trend of the interstellar trend."
As the saying goes: planning things are in people, things are achieved in heaven, if everything is not judged and guided, so that all the streams return to the sea, it is difficult to succeed. Hey, although you didn't high-five Li Xuan last night, you have become friends. Since they are not rivals, they have won some positions in the future. In the past few days, I have taken a closer look at the celestial phenomena, and the opponent in the northwest where Childe is located is dazzling and the momentum is vigorous, but it has a tendency to flourish and decline. And the opponent in the east where Childe is located, even if it has ups and downs for no reason, if the dust is fluttering, it has been flying like a fly without a head, although it has the help of a strong consortium, I am afraid that it will be difficult to support it for too long...... Therefore, as long as this Li Xuan recovers as before, the situation will improve!"
When Li Shimin heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope so...... I was really touched by the fact that my husband did not hesitate to spend his heart and blood to predict the situation tomorrow for me. It's just that the real situation in the rivers and lakes is probably more complicated at the moment...... It's a long story. ”
Yuan Tiangang was puzzled and said, "What's the matter?"
Li Shimin said: "This starts with why my father was willing to risk associating with Yan Wushu and other Mo Gang remnants. After a pause, he sighed: "Mo Gang, Mo Gang, Demon Gang." Therefore, at the beginning of the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the imperial court wanted to cut them off. ”
Yuan Tiangang said: "I know this. It is said that back then, Dugu Changfeng, Dugu Hong's father and son and Shangguan Xiaoxiong fought at the main altar of Mobang Wuse Peak, which can be described as a shocking ghost and god. Later, the Mo Gang was defeated, and since then they have been scattered on the rivers and lakes. ”
Li Shimin said: "Yes, that battle not only disintegrated the Mo Gang, but also rekindled my father's hope for a woman. Yuan Tiangang said: "Hope for a woman? Could it be that this person is from the Mo Gang?" Li Shimin nodded and said, "Exactly." I heard that this woman not only has the appearance of captivating the country and the city, but also has extremely high martial arts, which can be described as both color and art, if it is not abandoned by Dugu Hong, the son of Dugu Changfeng, and suffered a blow, she will never ......" Yuan Tiangang was surprised when he heard this: "You are talking about the Northern Zhou Dynasty's robbery of the world's martial arts and small yamen, the ranking of the color character seat! She also has entanglements with her father Li Taishou?" Li Shimin's voice sank like water, and he sighed: "The Mo Gang collapsed, and the dragon red leaves fell to Zhongnan Mountain, and then had a strange fate with Dugu Changfeng's beloved son Dugu Hong. But it has been difficult for officials and bandits to become a family since ancient times. Dugu Hong had to give up Long Hongye due to family interests and returned to the capital to marry another woman. Hey...... The abandoned dragon red leaves are heartbroken and wandering at the end of the world. It is said that it was later discovered by Yan Wushu...... At that time, Yan Wushu was full of desire to restore the Mo Gang and realize his dream of being the leader of the dragon, but he suffered from having no power, and when he discovered the dragon red leaves, it was like discovering a treasure.
Yan Wushu knew that my father had liked Long Hongye for many years, so he exchanged this news with my father. My father was a hero, but he had a long love for his children. Hearing this, regardless of the danger, he agreed to Yan Wuving, and contacted a few confidants to stun Long Hongye...... Hey...... My father fulfilled his wish and left in a hurry, but accidentally left the jade plaque he was carrying beside Long Hongye...... Later, Yan Wushu received funding from my father to form the Celestial Gang. ”
Yuan Tiangang said curiously: "What jade plate?"
Li Shimin said: "A jade plaque engraved with the word 'ice'. The ice is condensed by the sinking water. This jade plaque was given to his father by the official Sha Banyan of the Heavenly Machine in the middle of the court to protect the blessings. Hey, this should be Tang Bing's sister who appeared in the mansion with a jade plate, and her father always obeyed her. Yuan Tiangang said: "It turns out that Miss Bing is your half-sister. ”
When Li Shimin heard this, his face like white jade suddenly turned red, and he shook his head for a while and said, "She's not." Yuan Tiangang said: "Why?" Li Shimin said: "If she is my half-sister, my father will tell me the truth." Yuan Tiangang sighed: "What if Lord Li hides it from you?" Li Shimin said lightly: "Absolutely impossible...... Because I have already ...... Bingmei" Yuan Tiangang listened to him and knew the reason, and smiled: "Master Li knows about you and doesn't blame you, does he?" Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes." If we were really half-siblings, my father would be furious, but he just smiled and told me not to indulge in children's affairs. Yuan Tiangang said: "Then why does Miss Tang Bing have this jade plate?" Li Shimin said: "According to Sister Tang Bing, she was raised by the Ding brothers since she was a child, and it is estimated that the jade plate on her body should be from the Ding brothers...... But how could the Ding brothers get the jade medal from Long Hongye? This is really strange. ”
Yuan Tiangang groaned: "They were on an errand in the same yamen back then, and later left the imperial court together to run away from the rivers and lakes and join the Mo Gang. Therefore, it is not impossible for the Ding brothers to get this jade plate with the word 'ice' from Long Hongye. ”
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Very likely, but everything is uncertain." I'm afraid that the answer can only be obtained by questioning the Ding brothers. ”
Yuan Tiangang nodded and said, "Why did the son tell me this?" Li Shimin said: "My eldest brother and fourth brother have a lot of ambitions, one keeps gathering people in the rivers and lakes, and the other establishes a money village in the name of my father's 'Hou', not only creating right and wrong on the rivers and lakes, but also secretly contacting Zhai Rang, the leader of Wagangzhai, to arrange the overall situation of tomorrow. I've been laying out since last year, and although it's a little late, it's been quite smooth, and I've gotten some information in the process. Among these messages are Long Hongye and Li Xuan. Yuan Tiangang said: "Are these two related?" Li Shimin said: "You have already asked Li Xuan's birth date before...... Hey...... I have put all the information together and have made a judgment. Yuan Tiangang said: "The reason for asking his birth date is to be able to control him with magic in the future, but as for Gongzi's desire to gather information and make judgments, I didn't expect it...... Childe, has your judgment come to fruition?" Li Shimin said: "Long Hongye is Li Xuan's mother, but Li Xuan is not the child left by my father and Long Hongye back then!"
Yuan Tiangang muttered when he heard this: "Why do I get more confused the more I listen...... Maybe Lord Li and Long Hongye didn't leave any children at all. Li Shimin shook his head and said, "They have children left, but unfortunately I can't be sure who it is." Yuan Tiangang was puzzled and sighed: "Maybe they have children left, or maybe the children left behind have already died." ”
Li Shimin saw that Yuan Tiangang's face was full of doubts, and he looked like he was groaning, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Mr. can pinch and calculate, is proficient in the numerology of the stars, and knows the events of five hundred years before and after, can't he also calculate the relationship between Li Xuan and me?"
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he shook his head solemnly, and said with a straight face: "The second son is in love." In fact, the way of the horoscope's numerology is to use heaven, earth, Tao, law, people, and things to strip the outer garment of all things and present the hidden nucleus, that is, the so-called cause and effect. As for the process between cause and effect, there are no changes, twists and turns, and it is difficult to figure out thoroughly. ”
Li Shimin nodded and said, "What Mr. said makes sense. Hey...... But you don't have to be nervous, the reason why I told you about the matter involving my father, Long Hongye and Li Xuan is that in addition to my absolute trust in you, I actually have another purpose. Yuan Tiangang said: "I understand what Childe means. Li Shimin said curiously: "What do you understand? Just say it boldly and listen to it." ”
Yuan Tiangang said: "The reason why you asked Repentant to preside over the treatment of Li Xuan is that in addition to leaving the impression of 'grace and beauty' to the Shaolin monks, in exchange for Shaolin's greatest support for you, I also hope that Li Xuan will really be determined from now on and follow you to assist you." If he is really willing to work hard for you, in the near future, he may kill the leader of the huge force in the northwest, and he will also make the blood of that 'Hou' son splash five steps, and it is even possible to kill Yan Wuving, who has been secretly blackmailing the monarch's father, on the five-color peak next year, which is a triple win. On the contrary, if he fails, Childe will not have a lot of things. ”
After Li Shimin heard this, a look of blade flashed in his eyes, and he said to Yuan Tiangang: "Whoever knows me, there is only one gentleman in the world." But you don't have to say anything like 'the leader of the huge forces in the northwest, that Hou Gongzi'. Hum...... Flying Camel Lord ...... Although he is closely related to me by blood and brotherhood, he has been clever and constantly developing his power when he carried out my father's plan of 'enveloping and strrangling' that my father had been cultivating for many years. In the past few years, he has tried his best to package himself as a high-flying 'Flying Camel Holy Lord', thinking that he can command hundreds of heroes in the rivers and lakes to dominate the rivers and lakes and seize a step forward in the road of great causes, but he does not know that his hundred-year-old ghosts, the valley masters of the Medicine King Valley, and Wei Tongphantom are all fame and fortune and vicious people, and the rabble who deviate from the royal road like this will not achieve great things! Establish a money bank that is popular in the world, and with people and money, you can suddenly rise up. But since ancient times, people who have evil thoughts and no grand righteousness will always lose most of them before they start. Hey...... It is said that the current situation creates heroes, and the so-called current situation is nothing more than the current situation and conditions. Do you say that I should do my best to push Li Xuan to the pinnacle of the rivers and lakes, and then I only need to control him alone, and I can control the entire rivers and lakes...... It makes it hard for me to decide, it's hard to make a decision. ”
Yuan Tiangang nodded and said, "This matter should only be done and watched." If he still doesn't want to work together with his son, he may be self-defeating, but it will become a big problem. Li Shimin sighed: "This is also true." Yuan Tiangang said again: "Cao Zhi's poem said, 'It was born from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other', and now the two closest relatives of the son are not yet at the end of their lives, although the rivers and lakes are about to run out. Therefore, if you want to accomplish the great cause in your heart, you need to take a two-pronged approach, step by step, and plan slowly. ”
Li Shimin heard this and said, "Please explain in detail, sir." ”
Yuan Tiangang said: "At present, the monarch's father Li Taishou has not agreed to raise the flag, at this time, if the three of you ignore the overall situation and cause trouble to Xiao Wall, it will definitely be unfavorable to the overall situation." Therefore, you must sit firmly on the fishing platform, wait for Li Xuan to recover, and borrow his hand to cut off the feathers of those two. At the same time, you have to make your father Li Taishou understand that everything is only possible for him to sit on the throne of God with your persuasion and help, and you must also make him promise that if the great thing succeeds, you must be crowned the crown prince. In this way, you can not only quietly reduce the power of your two close relatives, but also not affect the overall situation because of family affection, and also take the lead in the future...... Alas, in my eagerness, that's all I can think of. ”
Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up, rubbed his hands, nodded and sighed: "Mr. not only has the ability to calculate cleverly, but also has the wisdom to understand the overall situation and plan for great things...... With your talent, you are definitely the talent of the national teacher!"
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly got up and said: "Being able to serve the son in the next life is a blessing in the past and this life, how dare you take the name of a national teacher." Childe was born with the appearance of an emperor, and I am just a small piece of colorful clouds in your dragon and blue sky...... Since ancient times, those who have helped the world are at most scheming, but those who can help the emperor rule the world need great wisdom and wisdom...... If Gongzi succeeds, Yuan hopes to wander the rivers and lakes from now on and live a peaceful and unrestrained savage. ”
Li Shimin nodded and said, "I'll talk about this later." After thinking about it, he said: "If Li Xuan is really willing to share my worries and sorrows on the rivers and lakes, and when the big thing is successful, I still need Mr. to cast a spell, and pray for him to help him ascend to heaven with his birthday!"
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he felt cold sweat on his back, and responded: "I must do my best...... At that time, if Li Xuan had received my blessing, he would have been carefree and free. After a pause, he said: "Second son, I don't know if you can say something?" Li Shimin smiled slightly and sighed: "You can say it boldly in front of me." Yuan Tiangang hesitated slightly before saying, "I don't think you should let the Ice Girl leave Li Xuan." Hearing this, Li Shimin's cheeks twitched a few times, and asked, "Why?" Yuan Tiangang lowered his head and said slowly: "I've always been worried that the departure of the Ice Girl will create a gap between you and Li Xuan......" Li Shimin didn't wait for Yuan Tiangang to finish speaking, and after coughing heavily, he said: "Bing'er is already my person, how can I let him mix with a Jianghu ronin." After speaking, he sighed and said, "Actually, I have other worries. Yuan Tiangang said: "What are you worried about?" Li Shimin said: "What if the eight characters of Li Xuan's birth date are fake?" Yuan Tiangang was stunned and muttered: "With my observation of his heart, it shouldn't be." Li Shimin sneered: "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, no one can say!" Yuan Tiangang suddenly realized: "It turns out that the second son is still worried that Li Xuan is the child left by Master Li and Long Hongye. Li Shimin nodded and said, "Before I am sure who my father and Long Hongye's child is, I have to be careful against him!"
Winter is lonely, and the wind and snow are disorderly. The night may be long, but it will pass. Li Xuan, who was in the Shaolin Temple, woke up, and it was already bright outside the meditation room. He had just finished his breakfast when the little novice came to invite him. A monk and a layman walked through the bluestone path of the pine and cypress forest outside the meditation room, turned three times and two times, passed through a walled garden gate, climbed the stairs, and came to a very ancient and solemn Zen room.
Xiao Shami gently knocked on the Zen door, and an old and rich voice inside said, "Is Li Shaoxia here?" Li Xuansu stood outside the door with his hands, waiting for the old voice to call him in, and then pushed the door in.
The house is not dark. A morning light shines through the window of the meditation room, quietly pouring into the empty and barely decorated meditation room.
Li Xuan saw that there were three old monks sitting in the room, not the three Zen masters Zhixing, Zhizong, and Zhicong that he had seen earlier in front of the Shaolin Gate. The three old monks in front of him, although their eyebrows are white, their spirits are extremely strong. He saw that the old monk opposite him was the repentant host of Shaolin Temple, and the old monks on his left and right sides had very different appearances and were quite ancient, but they didn't know him.
Seeing that Li Xuan was still standing at the door, the repentant host looked at his side quietly, and said with a slight smile: "Although you and I have only seen each other for a day, Li Shaoxia's mental complexion is much better. After finishing speaking, he pointed to a brown and yellow futon in front of him, and said, "Please!" Li Xuan sat down as he said. The repentant host gently pushed the steaming teacup in front of him to Li Xuan, and said slowly: "Let's have a cup of tea!" Li Xuan didn't know what he meant, and he couldn't shirk it, so he picked up the teacup and took a sip gently. At the entrance of warm tea, Li Xuan only felt that the tea in the cup was quite strange, not only did it have no tea fragrance at all, but also the entrance was obscure, and there was even a faint fishy smell, so he couldn't help frowning and reluctantly swallowed it. The repentant host looked at Li Xuan's expression and said slowly: "This tea is called 'Root Tea', which comes from the border of the Western Regions, and is known as 'one or two root teas, ten years of hard cultivation'. There are only one or two in this tea Shaolin Temple, which is a holy product that refreshes the mind and strengthens the yuan, protects the body and nourishes the qi, and is the most effective for your current condition. So, you can safely drink your cup of tea slowly. ”
Li Xuan said apologetically when he heard this: "It's a pity that the Zen master drank it with me." ”
The repentant host smiled and said: "Don't say that the young man was seriously injured in order to save hundreds of monks in this temple, even if the donor usually drank it, there is no pity." After finishing speaking, he said to the white-eyed old monk on the left: "Senior Brother Zhiyu, please try the pulse for the young man." ”
Hearing this, the Zen Master raised his hand slightly, and pressed it lightly on Li Xuan's wrist three feet away. Before Li Xuan could react, he felt that three extremely strong and soft energies came out from the other party's food, middle, and ring fingers. (To be continued.) )
