Li Gongde was placed in the corridor outside the study by Sun Fulu, Xu Hun tied up the five flowers, the injury was not light, the placket was stained with blood, and he was surrounded by a henchman of Li Gongde, eyeing the spy Xu Hun.
This person is a genuine little master, his cultivation is naturally good, and he has always been as famous as the Liantang gang leader nicknamed Monkey in the rivers and lakes of Lingzhou, but one still enjoys the glory and wealth in the mansion of the Jinglu Envoy, and the other is wiped out overnight, and there is no corpse, which shows that the dog who cares for the home is much more comfortable than being a helpless wild dog.
Li Gongde looked quite calm, closed his eyes and concentrated, but the two fists shrunk in the cuffs were loosened and clenched, and at the end of the corridor leaned against Hong Shuwen, who was born from Bai Ma Yicong, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
When Hong Shuwen stood up straight, Li Gongde suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw His Royal Highness the Prince returning with Xu Beitong on his back, the gap between him and the imaginary scene was too big, and he was inevitably a little confused.
Li Gongde rolled over with a hob in the officialdom dye vat, immediately reined in his mood, and let the personal guards leave first, the old man did not pinch his tone this time to pretend to be an elder, but solemnly brushed his clothes and sleeves, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Li Gongde came to confess to His Royal Highness the Prince overnight, and I hope that His Royal Highness will save Li Hanlin in more than 20 years of love."
Li Gongde couldn't see Xu Fengnian's expression, His Royal Highness the Prince probably handed over the drunk Xu Beitong to Hong Shuwen first, and then walked quickly, grabbed the arms of the envoy, and tried to help him get up, but Li Gongde tried his best to bow his head and kneel, only to hear His Royal Highness the Prince of the World anxiously ask: "Why does Uncle Li act like this, how can Feng Nian be worthy of Hanlin, and what is Uncle Li got up and spoke" Li Gongde said faintly with tears: "Your Highness, if you don't agree to save my son Hanlin, Li Gongde will kneel and die here, and he won't get up."
Xu Fengnian, who was full of alcohol, said angrily: "I can't save anyone, but Hanlin can't help it, how can you let Hanlin fall into danger Uncle Li, why do you behave like this, it's not that you, as a dignified envoy of the Northern Liang Dao, do something that can't help the Xu family."
Li Gongde raised his head and said with tears: "Your Highness, Li Gongde has been loyal to Beiliang for 20 years, the sky can be learned, the general's cultivation of the Li family, Entong reconstruction, Li Gongde admits that he has removed the crime of greedy ink that he dare not deny, and he has no two hearts for Beiliang and the Xu family."
Xu Fengnian squatted in front of the gaffe envoy, and said softly: "In this case, Uncle Li should get up and speak, first say who the person who is tied up, and why Hanlin wants me to save him, there are no outsiders here, you and my uncle and nephew can say it directly."
If I can't do something, then I'll go and beg Xu Xiao, I don't believe that anyone in Beiliang can hurt Hanlin and who can wronged the Li family."
Li Gongde trembled and got up in a hurry, wiped his tears with his sleeve, stretched out his hand to Xu Hun, and said sharply: "This person's surname is Xu Minghun, he is the cronies of Li Xifeng who weaves the golden threads, and he is also a secret agent of the Liyang Imperial Court.
In the future, his status in the imperial court is only higher than Yan Jiexi's bastard old man, not low, not to mention that Zhao Gou has already arranged the retreat of the Li family, how could Li Gongde be so ungrateful, and take down this thief right now, but pity my son Hanlin, who has been transferred to the North Mang and Southern Dynasties by a military order, and now has been forcibly escorted to the east along the northern border, I am afraid that it will not be long before Jizhou enters the capital, Your Highness, although Li Gongde has no intention of betraying Beiliang, but since he will be targeted by Li Xifeng and Xu Hun, these insidious gangsters, Since Li Gongde's strategy is not right, they will think that there is an opportunity, His Royal Highness and the general no matter how to deal with Li Gongde afterwards, Li Gongde has no complaints, but how Hanlin is a person, His Royal Highness is the most clear, if he arrives in the capital, he will definitely be slashed by the annoyed and angry blue-eyed and the Zhao family's son of heaven, Your Highness, you must save Hanlin."
Xu Fengnian exhaled a breath of turbidity and smiled, "It turns out that this is the case, Uncle Li don't worry too much, come, go to the study and sit and drink tea, Feng Nian will send a message to Xu Xiao, Chu Lushan and Youzhou General Huangfu Scales respectively, and I will definitely guarantee that Uncle Li will be returned to a safe and sound Li Hanlin."
Li Gongde was about to nod his head and thank him, but his eyes widened suddenly, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, who had never smiled in front of him, said that Xu Hun might be able to dig out many secret golden bumps like this, and directly pushed it out with one palm, and his five fingers became hooks, directly tearing off half of Xu Hun's face, and then he still seemed to be disgusted with too much trouble, and a slap on the head of the immortal, poor Xu Hun was killed on the spot without saying a word.
Xu Fengnian, who was covered with blood, scribbled on his sleeve carelessly, and then carefully supported the envoy with one hand, pushed the door with the other, and the two crossed the threshold together, Xu Fengnian stopped, leaned back, and smiled at Xu Yanbing: "Trouble Uncle Xu to ask Hong Shuwen to hurry up and send out the three secret letters, and the last one to the Huangfu scale, just say that this prince allowed him to mobilize two thousand light horsemen privately and go out of the customs to intercept."
By the way, call someone to bring a pot of hot tea. ” Xu Yanbing nodded.
Li Gongde whispered: "Your Highness, Xu Hun is clearly not an ordinary spy, Li Gongde had a heart to cover him before, it seems that Yan Jiexi fled from Beiliang, he also personally participated, with him in his hands, there is no need to worry about Li Xifeng and the Golden Wisp Weaving Bureau not complying."
It seems safer to kill later. ” Xu Fengnian shook his head and smiled: "Uncle Li underestimates the tightness of these dead soldiers' mouths, and in Beiliang, my own territory, I don't bother to care about Li Xifeng's weaving bureau, even if I add those Zhao Gou spies, as long as there is a passable reason, I can kill them casually, I am not related to them, anyway, they are both hostile sides, you live and die, no need to be emotional."
To do this kind of thing, it depends on who is ruthless, the peregrine falcon eagle fell into the hands of Zhao Gou outside Beiliang, and it will end up like this, otherwise how to call the dead man, the dead man is not called in vain. ” Li Gongde listened to His Royal Highness's extraordinarily leisurely and indifferent words, and when he sat down, he glanced at the young man's untimely gray hair, and did not speak.
Xu Fengnian smiled and comforted: "If Uncle Li thinks that the Huangfu scale and two thousand elite horses are not enough, he can also send two hundred more crossbowmen and one thousand horsemen. ” Li Gongde hurriedly echoed: "Okay, okay."
Alas, this smoky miasma really embarrassed His Highness. ” Xu Fengnian waved his hand, Xu Yanbing personally sent tea, and Xu Fengnian told him the order to add people and horses to go out of the customs urgently.
Xu Fengnian sneered: "What a Li Xifeng, it's really amazing, he has been a shrunken turtle in Beiliang for more than ten years, if he wants to do it, he will specialize in big business, digging the foot of the Xu family's wall and digging is addicted, and he doesn't know how to be satisfied with giving the master of the Zhao family a family, and now even Uncle Li refuses to let go, and after tonight, I will go to meet this golden thread weaving for a while, and then he will not have such a good life as Xu Hun." ” Li Gongde sighed, looked at Xu Fengnian, and said sincerely: "Your Highness, in this way, although it is not Li Gongde who has committed his own crimes, he also thinks that he is ruined, and he has no shame or intention to be an official.
In fact, when His Royal Highness came to Lingzhou, Li Gongde already had this thought, the back waves of the river pushed the front waves, the hearts of the people of Beiliang were wanted, and there was already the atmosphere of a scholar becoming a forest, Li Gongde knew that he was shallow and ugly, and his reputation was extremely poor.
At the beginning, His Royal Highness served as the general of Lingzhou, Li Gongde thought about giving His Royal Highness a hand for a year or two before retiring, and it was also considered to have fulfilled a wish to be an official in the Northern Liang Dynasty. ” Xu Fengnian gently lowered his head and blew the mist of tea, smiling without saying a word.
The lights in the study were dim, Li Gongde held the teacup with both hands to keep warm, the mist was steaming, and the expressions of the faces of the old and the young were blurred.
Li Gongde carefully considered the words and said slowly: "Your Highness, Li Gongde resigned and retired, not blindly avoiding suspicion, it is indeed a big responsibility that he knows is difficult, when the first envoy of Beiliang Dao, that is, to drive ducks to the shelves, to say that Li Gongde's well-known official addiction is almost enjoyable, now the pattern of Beiliang is expanding, the weather is new, Li Gongde does not read much, compared to Wang Xihua These scholars are even worse than 108,000 miles, but a few days ago, I saw Negative Zhen replacing the old with new peaches on one door after another, and I figured out a truth that I didn't understand before, No matter how well the old Spring Festival couplets are written, but after a year, they are old and unbearable, not to mention others, just looking at it is not festive enough, far less pleasing to the eye than the new Lianzi, and the current Beiliang is full of vigor and talent, His Royal Highness has the heart to rectify the officialdom, and the officialdom is nothing more than the essence of the three words of moving the position, so as long as Li Gongde leaves, it is not good to say that the entire Beiliang officialdom can be promoted to a level, and the most unfortunate people in His Royal Highness's picture can move upwards.
This is when Li Gongde finally does what he can for Bei Liang" Xu Fengnian interrupted: "Let's not talk about this first, Uncle Li is still young, and it is too early to say anything about retiring and traveling in the forest." ” Li Gongde wanted to speak and stopped.
Xu Fengnian couldn't help but smile on his face, and said: "I guess, Zhang Julu told the imperial court that he would also give Uncle Li a Shangshu and a university scholar title, otherwise it would be too petty." ” Li Gongde smiled: "Li Gongde has never opened the secret letter, so he doesn't know the content. ” Then the Lord put the secret letter in his bosom on the table.
Xu Fengnian glanced at it casually, and heard Li Gongde's hearty laughter for the first time tonight, "If you want Li Gongde to say, a book with the same rank as the Jingluo Envoy, plus a palace scholar who can't change silver, can't look down on it, how can you let Tantan Weng Huanwen's position give up to Li Gongde, of course, if Lord Shoufu is willing to let Xian, Li Gongde doesn't mind laughing, if that's the case, let Li Gongde regret it once, Your Highness don't want to stop Li Gongde, Ming'er will take office immediately." ” Xu Fengnian took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "If the son of heaven of the Zhao family has this courage, hey, I really won't stop Uncle Li, the official trained by our Beiliang turned out to be the first assistant of the imperial court, and it is good to spread it, and in the future, countless scholars will not pour into Beiliang as officials, because Beiliang is a blessed land of Longxing, and this son is happy to let them work hard in Beiliang for twenty or thirty years, and accumulate enough hard work, and then run to let the imperial court politely accept the pension, and enjoy more than ten years of high-ranking officials and Houlu, After his death, he was given a good word by the emperor, what a good thing, the Xu family in Beiliang benefited, and the Zhao family in the imperial court was named, and they were all happy. ” Li Gongde smiled knowingly.
Xu Fengnian restrained his smile and said, "Uncle Li, you are still at ease to be your envoy, and Hanlin, I promise to help you return to Lingzhou unscathed." ” Li Gongde still wanted to speak, Xu Fengnian closed the lid of the cup, rested it on the table, and said with a look of expression that could not be refused: "Uncle Li, it's decided, everything will wait for Hanlin to come back."
Li Gongde had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye and leave the study silently.
Xu Fengnian sent it to the door of the study, sat back in the chair and closed his eyes.
This secret matter, which is enough to shake the government and the opposition once it is spread, is that he single-handedly plans the overall situation, and Xu Weixiong and Wutong Yuan are responsible for scrutinizing every detail.
Golden wisp weaving Li Xifeng and Beiliang did a business, his children and grandchildren as hostages are left in the capital, he wants to be able to leave Beiliang alive, but also to make the court or to be accurate the emperor not suspicious, it is necessary to come up with a watertight plan, and the whole body will be moved, so Xu Hun is a conscientious Zhao Gou spy is true, Li Xifeng and Zhang Julu from the court are also true, Li Hanlin was transferred to the Northern Mang Southern Dynasty is still true.
True and false, intricate, the interests of the period are intertwined, and their respective sizes and actions are enough to dazzle, especially Bei Liang's side can not have a single step of the pool, Liyang can afford to lose, Bei Liang can't afford to lose, win, the golden wisp weaving has become Beiliang's private property from the imperial court institutions, a large number of spies lurking in Beiliang and around Beiliang will be touched by Shun Teng, and even many Liyang spies who have infiltrated the military on the border will also be uprooted.
In this way, the silt in the Beiliang mud pond can be cleaned up.
Xu Fengnian, as the general of Lingzhou, was not interested in the military affairs of Lingzhou from the beginning, but to make the Beiliang officialdom completely free of worries, so that those scholars could take root with peace of mind.
If Li Gongde resisted the temptation, then Xu Fengnian had said to himself before that he would let this Uncle Li become addicted to official duties, in case not, it would become the worst situation, even if the Yan family rebelled first, Xu Fengnian had no intention of letting the Li family be destroyed, and would only nominally let Li Gongde resign and return to his hometown under the pretext of being unwell, and be a rich man in Huangnan County with peace of mind.
What Xu Hun does is Li Xifeng's will, and Li Xifeng's guidance to Xu Hun is Xu Fengnian's secret will.
As for the crossbowman standard leader Li Hanlin, secretly a large number of the most elite eagle warriors in Beiliang have long been watching, and there are also six small grandmasters of the palace who are mixed in, and those Zhao Gou who are responsible for leading outside the pass are destined to be a dead end.
It's just that Xu Fengnian knows that in this way, the four fox friends who grew up together, visited the Qinglou together, and carried the black pot together, the four brothers, there is no one left.
The envoy took the henchman and walked out of the general's mansion slowly.
Li Gongde turned his head to look at the slightly gloomy mansion in the night, and asked with a smile: "What kind of person do you say His Royal Highness the Prince is?"
The little grandmaster hesitated for a moment and said, "Master." ” Li Gongde smiled, and did not force this cautious master of the rivers and lakes, and said to himself: "Although it is not poisonous and not a husband, it may not be heroic to be affectionate." ” Hu never dared to talk much.
Li Gongde walked to the door of his house before he was about to step on the steps, suddenly retracted his feet, and said with a smile: "Let's take a walk on the apricot street, which is finally clean and clean." ” Li Gongde walked to the empty and lonely street, and sighed for no reason: "All living beings are suffering, it depends on how to be happy in suffering."

Others see you as pitiful, but you don't know that you are bitter, that is the real ability. ” "I, like the generals, am old.
Whatever you do now, it's for your children and grandchildren. ” Den.
Xu Fengnian reached out and held the teacup.
The white porcelain cup shattered with a bang.
Half a cup of tea splashed all over the body.
It is set to arrive at the Lingzhou General's Mansion on the third day of the first month, and only arrive on the fourth day of the first month.
Three secret letters are deliberately mentioned in the corridor.
Xu Fengnian gave the Li family opportunities again and again.
At this time, there was still only a lone secret letter on the table.
Playing this game of chess, Beiliang, who occupies a favorable geographical position, will not lose, only win more and win less.
But for him Xu Fengnian, he lost anyway.
It's a lonely man he brought on himself Xu Beitong said it really well.
