Li Mi said lightly: "If the three Li brothers are divided according to the strength of the rivers and lakes, Li Jiancheng is the largest, Li Yuanji is the second, and Li Shimin is the weakest. However, when the rich and noble darts into the rivers and lakes, although there was chaos in the rivers and lakes, the originally ambiguous power structure was clearly distinguished. Among them, the most obvious is to push Yan Wuving, who has always had a secret agreement with Li Yuanji, to Li Yuanji's side. Hey, for many years, Yan Wushu has been bent on restoring the glory of the Mo Gang, but if he has no money and wants to achieve hegemony, it can only be a dream! Ha Yan Invincible also knew that Li Yuan had been guarding against him from beginning to end. Therefore, when Yan Wushu got Li Yuan's funding and set up the Heavenly God Gang, he began to play the game of retreat and disappearance. It is said that a few days ago, although the two renegotiated in Chang'an Restaurant, they did not negotiate the desired result, and as a last resort, Yan Wushu decided to recruit the gang by himself, and during this period, Li Yuanji took the opportunity to encircle Yan Wuving. Hey said that feng shui took turns, but Yan Invincible turned around, and still couldn't get out of Li Yuan's control. ”

Li Xuan said secretly when he heard this: "In this way, could it be that earlier on the bank of Longhu Pond, Yan Wushu deliberately said Li Yuan, the old Hou Gongzi, and pretended not to know Li Yuanji, the Hou Gongzi? Or did Li Yuanji implement the rich dart plan on the rivers and lakes, and did not let Yan Wushu know? Alas, in this Jianghu, why are people always so complicated!"

Li Mi continued: "Yan Wushu has a strong and domineering personality, and this time he has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, and he has gathered many gangs in a short period of time. As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Shanhe and said, "And the biggest gang that follows Yan Invincible is the Flying Dragon Sect of the Mighty Earthquake Jianghu. ”

After Zhu Shanhe heard this, his cheeks twitched a few times, and he slowly picked up the teacup and said, "This is the last thing that all the Heavenly Dragon Sect elders are willing to mention. Alas, since the Flying Dragon Sect was taken over by Zhong Chu Gongzi, he led Yan Invincible in more than a month. ”

When Li Mi heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "Although young people should have their own ideas, if they don't listen to the old Jianghu people, they will inevitably fall on their heels. Senior Zhu, you don't need to worry about this matter, when Zhong Chu suffers a big loss, he will understand your hard work. ”

Zhu Shanhe sighed: "It's too late to regret it when you suffer a big loss!"

Li Xuandao: "If you look at the rich darts planned by Li Yuanji and An Ruohai, their plans are not only too insidious and cunning, but also have the behavior of using other people's lives as bait in the implementation of the plan. Senior Zhu, since you are the patriarch of the Flying Dragon Sect, can't you go all out to prevent the Flying Dragon Sect from returning to Shunyan Invincible?"

Zhu Shanhe said helplessly: "Zhong Chu Gongzi did ask for our opinions at first, but later when he saw that the old man and several other old brothers were opposed, he ignored us and acted arbitrarily. Zhong Chu Gongzi is young, how can he withstand Yan Invincible's coercion and temptation! This is also the fundamental reason why I, Han Zaitong, He Zi, and other Flying Dragon Sect elders retired from the mountains and forests. ”

Li Mi nodded and said: "Idle clouds and wild cranes, not asking about the world, being free, and having a free rest of your life is also a way to respect yourself." However, such as the Medicine King Gu Nangong True Master, Feng Xingyu, and the Lord of Kamikaze Castle, Wei Tonghuan and others, are willing to be cattle and horses for the eldest prince Li Jiancheng, not only lost their original freedom, but also became a scum who acted for the tiger and harmed the rivers and lakes. ”

Li Xuan was taken aback when he heard this, and muttered: "The master of these people is Li Jiancheng, so isn't Li Jiancheng the Flying Camel Holy Lord?" He was surprised in his heart, and said secretly: "It turns out that the Flying Camel Holy Lord is not Li Yuan, but the eldest prince Li Jiancheng, no wonder he refused to tell Yan Wushu who the Flying Camel Holy Lord was that day, it seems that he is also worried about what kind of agreement there is between Yan Wushu and Li Yuan!" After Bing'er and I rescued Yan Wushu before, Yan Wushu once said that they were born from the same root, and they were too anxious to fry each other, but I didn't understand at the time, but now it seems that Yan Wushu may have guessed that there is something wrong between Li Yuan and his three sons! Could it be that after inheriting the wealth of Tang Guogong, he still can't satisfy Li Yuan?"

Zhu Shanhe heard Li Mi mention the Flying Camel Holy Lord, gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "The old man only recently learned that Li Jiancheng is the mysterious and abnormal Flying Camel Holy Lord. Alas, since the last time he was attacked by Feng Xingyu, although he was rescued by Shaoxia, every time he thought of the future of the Flying Dragon Sect, the old man was always disheartened. We originally planned to spend the rest of our lives in this village, but we were delighted to meet Mr. Li Mi. Therefore, we plan to escort Mr. Li Mi into Wagangzhai while these old bones have not fallen apart. ”

Li Mi nodded and said, "Thank you brother for helping me." You just have to rest assured, if I, Li Mi, can gain a foothold in Wagangzhai, I will definitely look for an opportunity to help you eradicate the wind and rain that once insulted you, defeat the three Li brothers, and make the Zhong Chu Sect Leader change his mind. ”

When Li Xuan heard Li Mi say this, he secretly said in his heart: "It turns out that they have already reached a deal. It's just that why is Li Mi so keen to defeat the three brothers Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji? Could it be that in addition to these three brothers in his heart, the rest of the anti-kings who are ready to move and want to take over the world are vulnerable?" Qin Qiong also seemed to feel strange about Li Mi's words, and couldn't help but mutter: "Could it be that in the eyes of Mr., the three Li brothers have amazing energy, and they are more difficult to deal with than other anti-kings in the world?"

Li Mi smiled faintly and said: "That's true! For example, today all kinds of anti-kings are all over the north and south of the river, although each has its own army and respect, but in terms of political plots and effective troops, the biggest one is Wagangzhai. However, in terms of ambition and dormant potential, the people who can fight with Wagangzhai in the future are except for Wang Shichong of Jiangdu County, who is reluctant, and among them is Li Yuan's secretly managed power is the largest. As long as the time comes, he will not only gain political and military advantages, but also take the lead in the rivers and lakes, but it is a pity that although Li Jiancheng has established a huge force in the rivers and lakes, he has pushed the plan too quickly, resulting in the good and bad of the people who follow him, and even arouse the disgust of the people in the rivers and lakes. And the fourth son, Li Yuanji, in addition to using some treacherous means, his mind and plan will not be able to achieve great things after all. Only the second son Li Shimin is different, this person has a tough personality and an extraordinary bearing, although the current power is not very large, but most of the people who follow him are heroes with a righteous mind and a heart of fraternity.

Judging from the Taishan Conference, from the initial discussion of preserving the bloodline of the rivers and lakes to the current situation where the heroes want to compete for the leader of the rivers and lakes and kill each other, it is Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji who promote it. As for Li Shimin, he has always stayed out of the matter, and his calmness is unpredictable. Therefore, it is not so much that the three Li brothers are difficult to deal with, but that Li Shimin is difficult to deal with. ”

Li Xuan had never met Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, but because he had been in contact with Li Shimin, he still agreed with Li Mi's arguments. He said secretly: "The young Li Shimin is not only calm and capable, but also surpasses many old rivers and lakes in terms of thoughtfulness and political ambitions. Just thinking about it, I heard Li Mi continue: "Although I have been hiding in Tibet all these years, I have also seen the rivers and lakes of the world more clearly. The current forces of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji are indeed stronger than Li Shimin, but because of what they have done, not only are they not chivalrous, but they even harm the rivers and lakes, people and gods are angry, and it is difficult to achieve anything in the future!"

Li Xuandao: "In this regard, do you value Li Shimin?"

Li Mi shook his head and said: "Although Li Shimin is graceful and magnanimous, he started late, not only is he too young, but he also has no powerful people to help. Hehe, if the situation is today, the smoke is everywhere, whoever has the most strength can exercise the royal road to win the world. Therefore, I value the power of Zhai Rang, the owner of Wagang Village, and I am also very confident in the world's plan in my chest. ”

Li Xuan saw that Li Mi had reached his own world, and his slender eyes suddenly flashed with a scorching blade-like light.

Although this light flashed, it contained the domineering spirit of the sky, and the confidence that flowed from the inside out was hard to believe that it came from the eyes of a scholar wearing a square scarf. He sighed secretly, and said in his heart: "This Mr. Li Mi seems to be weak and quiet, has he already studied the world's rivers and lakes thoroughly? From this point of view, this person has been lying in the rivers and lakes for many years, not only to be able to have the position of power, I am afraid that in his heart, being called the king and the emperor is the ultimate long-cherished desire." ”

After Li Mi finished speaking, he suddenly changed his words and said to Qin Qiong: "Brother Shubaoxian, now that I am telling Li Shaoxia these things, I actually want to ask you to send a letter to Master Zhang, I am going to Wagangzhai! Alas, since I Li Mi followed Yang Xuangan to fail in the uprising, I have wandered the rivers and lakes, although I have suffered a lot, but I have not lost the heroic will in my heart. I risked being cut by the imperial court with a thousand knives across the corpse rivers and lakes, and I would no longer accept half of the faint monarch Yang Guang's money. After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the gradually dawning east, and let the faint morning light shine on his resolute and solemn expression.

Qin Qiong nodded and sighed: "Since you have such a resolute heart, I will definitely tell Lord Zhang Sumeru truthfully." Mr. Li, there are very few people in the world today who are as talented as you, and it is a loss for the court to be unable to contribute to the imperial court. Now that the day is clear, I will take my leave! If you need help in the future, you will do your best to help you, even if you say it. Yan Bi stood up and said to Zhu Shanhe: "Mr. Li's journey to Wagangzhai is extremely dangerous, so I ask you to take care of it." ”

Zhu Shanhe smiled slightly and said, "Brother Qin, relax. Originally, the old man wanted to take advantage of this Taishan event to strongly recommend Mr. Li Mi Li to be the leader of the Jianghu Alliance, but Mr. Li rejected the old man's kindness. At first, the old man thought that Mr. Li might not look down on the position of the leader of the Jianghu Alliance, but it was not until he expounded his heroic ambition that the old man knew that no matter how high the status of the rivers and lakes was, he could not save the people of Li from fire and water. It seems that only by changing the temple and establishing another dynasty can the world return to prosperity. Haha, the old man has always respected people with great ambitions, and now such a hero is in front of him, how can the old man not take care of it!

Brother Qin, although we have only been together for three or five days, your heroic temperament has convinced the old man. If you say goodbye here, you may not know when you will meet again. Now that you are leaving, the old man can only say some words in his heart. ”

Qin Qiong said: "Please also ask the elders Zhu to teach." ”

Zhu Shanhe humbly said: "I don't dare to teach it." After a pause, he said: "Today's Great Sui Dynasty is full of holes, Brother Qin is in the imperial court, and he does not hesitate to fight for the imperial court, what he sees and hears, he must see it more clearly than me, the reckless rivers and lakes, right?" Qin Qiong was silent and said lightly: "What does Senior Zhu mean" Zhu Shanhe said in a deep voice: "People go to high places, and water flows to low places." Good birds choose trees to perch, and the dragon returns to the sea is the king. Since you are a hero, why not" Before Zhu Shanhe finished speaking, Qin Qiong's face had already changed, and he stood up and shook his head.

Qin Qiong said with a gloomy face: "Senior Zhu doesn't need to say it. You and Mr. Li Mi are respected people, and whoever said something that was not conducive to the stability of the dynasty before, I would only treat it as a drunken chatter. But if I want me to give up the court now, but I can't!", he bowed to Zhu Shanhe and Li Mi and said, "Since Mr. has made up his mind not to return to the imperial court, I will leave here." ”

He walked a few steps with a calm face, suddenly turned around and took Li Xuan's hand and said, "It's an honor to meet such an extraordinary person as Brother Li today, but why do you always feel that you haven't said enough! If your brother is willing, can you get on the horse and give my brother a ride?"

Li Xuan saw that Qin Qiong said to go, without dragging his feet, knowing that although Zhu Shanhe had good intentions, he had touched Qin Qiong's bottom line. He got up and hugged his fists to Zhu Shanhe and Li Mi, got up and walked out of the village gate with Qin Qiong in the direction of the main road.

At this time, the morning light of the first awakening shone on the hoarfrost spread out in the four fields, the silver was faint, and the dense forest could not be blocked, and in desperation, a light gauze-like mist was summoned, wrapping the earth tightly. Li Xuan secretly looked at Qin Qiong, and saw that his well-defined face always maintained a resolute expression, and secretly said in his heart: "This person was ordered to go around to fight against the righteous army, although he killed countless people, maybe he had to do it because he was burdened with the king's order! Alas, I always heard people say that he was honest and filial, and he had to be ruthless in order to repay Zhang Sumeru's kindness, did he have an unknown bitterness in his heart?"

Qin Qiong and Li Xuan walked side by side, not paying attention to Li Xuan secretly observing himself, only looking into the distance in a daze all the way, as if his heart belonged, and when he turned through the dense forest, he slowly asked: "Brother Li is also the first time to meet Mr. Li Mi, right?" Seeing Li Xuan nodded, he asked: "How do you feel about this person?" Li Xuan smiled lightly: "The mountains are high and the waters are deep, the faces of people are people's hearts, and it is extremely difficult to determine when we meet for the first time." However, although Li Mi prides himself on being a hero, the younger brother feels that it is difficult for him to achieve great things. Qin Qiong was stunned when she heard this, and asked with respect: "How can Brother Li see it?" Li Xuan muttered: "It's just my feeling! Just like the first time I saw Li Shimin, I always felt that he had the appearance of an emperor for some reason." Qin Qiong said: "Have you seen the second son Li Shimin? Do you think Li Mi is not as good as the second son Li Shimin?"

Li Xuan nodded and said: "Mr. Li Mi has been talking for a long time, in fact, in addition to knowing the general trend of the world and the grievances of the rivers and lakes, the world's plan mentioned is just to subvert the dynasty and change the temple number. Well, even though he is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, he is willing to give up the plan to compete for the leader of the Jianghu Alliance, but if he always remembers the trivial miscellaneous matters of the grievances of the gangs in the rivers and lakes, then the world's plan is destined to be a patchwork dream. Only dreams without ideals, only plans without plans, how can we achieve the royal road?"

Qin Qiong groaned: "In this way, does the second son, Li Shimin, have ideals and plans?"

Li Xuan nodded and said, "That's true." The ideal of the second son, Li Shimin, is the way to great causes, and the most important part of the plan is to treat people in eight ways. ”

Qin Qiongqi said: "The way of great cause may be understood as the way of prosperity, but his eight ways of treating people should be explained in detail by my brother. ”

Li Xuandao: "The eight rules for treating people are to be sincere, to put one's heart into one's heart, to be trustworthy in words and deeds, to be open and honest, to be strict and lenient, to promote others and to blame oneself, to distinguish grievances and grievances, and not to give up on life and death." Qin Qiong was silent for a long time when she heard this, took out two neatly folded letters from her bosom and handed them to Li Xuan, saying, "This is the letter written to me by Wang Shichong and Li Shimin respectively. Li Xuan was stunned when he heard this, but he just glanced at it and handed it back to Qin Qiong, asking, "What happened when the two of them wrote to their brother?" Qin Qiong said lightly: "Invite me to join them." Li Xuanqi said: "Join them and raise the banner of anti-Sui together?"

Qin Qiong nodded and said slowly, "Not bad." Although both of them strongly invited me to join them, Wang Shichong talked a lot about how much glory and wealth he would give me after the successful rebellion, while Li Shimin devoted a great deal of space to talking about Li Min's water and fire and the great cause of the prosperous world. After a pause, he said: "Although I think that Brother Li is young, his martial arts and vision are not inferior to the world's famous masters. So, you can help me analyze which of the two can be entrusted with the rest of their lives!"

Li Xuan said in a deep voice: "Although Wang Shichong's power is not as strong as that of the Flying Camel Holy Lord Li Jiancheng, there will be a time when the wind and rain will be called upon in the future. But from the perspective of chivalry in the rivers and lakes, what he did was no different from that of the Flying Camel Holy Lord Li Jiancheng, if the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes was strong, it would be difficult to enter the hall of elegance. And Li Shimin is fledgling, and he must rely on the help of his father Li Yuan, eldest brother Li Jiancheng, and fourth brother Li Yuanji, so although he has the spirit of a king, it will take at least a few more years to show up. Therefore, it is too early to make a choice between the two in a short period of time! My suggestion is to wait and see what happens, and only then can we try to get along with them separately if there is any change in the situation in the world. ”

Qin Qiong's face turned happy when she heard this, and said, "What Brother Li said is extremely true. Before you came, in fact, Mr. Li Mi also invited me to Wagangzhai with him, but I refused, because even if I can betray the imperial court, I can't betray Lord Zhang Sumeru!

When I was a teenager, my mother told me that my husband was born alive, and in addition to making meritorious contributions, he also wanted to be a person who valued love and righteousness and distinguished right from wrong. Li Mi, Wang Shichong, and Li Shimin all have the air of kings, and they also value me very much, but if I don't respect the royal way, even if I put high-ranking officials in front of me, I will abandon them, not to mention that if I want to help them achieve great things, I must show twelve points of ability. It's a pity that I only have the courage to fight the three armies and the courage of the horseman, but I am far from the talent of strange formations, building camps, digging ditches and trenches, and ambushing hidden weapons, which is also the main reason why I want to wait and see what happens. ”

After Li Xuan heard Qin Qiong's words, his heart moved, he stretched out his hand to grab the yellow horse under his crotch, and said in a deep voice: "If you have the ability to manipulate strange formations, build camps, dig ditches and set up trenches, and ambush hidden weapons, can you be able to care for the people and distinguish between right and wrong?"

Qin Qiong saw Li Xuan asking himself with a sincere face, and couldn't help but smile and said: "It is my creed to have the people of Li in mind and distinguish between right and wrong, how can I change because of my ability!" Li Xuan nodded when he heard this, and muttered: "I believe you will do what you say!" After finishing speaking, he took out the book of Heavenly Bestowal Miracles left by Yu Wu Feng Shui from his arms, handed it to Qin Qiong, and said: "This album may be of great help to you, you can take it! But you have to remember that with it, although you can gallop across the country and be invincible, if you help the evil, If you don't do it, I will not only seek you to retrieve the book, but perhaps also take your life. After speaking, he let go of the reins of the yellow horse, and flicked his fingers lightly on the horse's neck, and the yellow horse was frightened by the pain, neighed, raised his four hooves, and rushed forward with a prickly sting.
