Jiang Qing

Outside the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, Xiaoer held the jug of good wine that Xue Xiu ordered, and knocked on the door of Jian Shiliu's room.

The door was only opened a small crack, revealing half of Jian Shiliu's expressionless face: "What's the matter?"

"Downstairs Xue Daxia asked the little one to bring you a pot of good wine. This is the best spring wine in our store." Xiaoer smiled graciously holding a jar of wine.

Just as Jian Shiliu was about to refuse, a lazy voice came from the room: "He also has good intentions, bring it in."

After what happened just now, Xiao Er was scared out of her wits and didn't dare to look any further.Seeing that Jian Shiliu took the wine, he turned around and ran away, for fear that he would be silenced if he saw something he shouldn't have seen.

"He's quite clever." The people in the room seemed to see Xiao Er's back in a hurry, and made fun of him.

Jian Shiliu took the pot of wine, and after confirming that no one was there, he closed the door, turned around and offered the wine: "Villa Master."

"Do you want to drink?" Mei Shao took the wine and pushed it aside.

"This is someone who invited you to drink, not me." Li An said with a smile, "Begging for a drink from the mouth of an alcoholic like you, do I think I will live a long life?"

Mei Shao didn't try to persuade him any more, he didn't see a wine bowl after looking around, so he simply took a sip from the jar: "This Xiao Er is honest, this wine is not bad."

"Speaking of business, how are you talking with His Majesty?" Li An straightened his expression, "I bet on you, don't let me lose everything."

"Your Majesty wants a military power for peace of mind, so I'll give him one." Mei Shao said again, "The martial arts match between Jing and the eldest princess is an excellent introduction."

What Zhao Zhen wants is definitely not Xiao Hui at 01:30. If he wants a military power, he must grab a piece of meat from the hands of the four major military officers.

Li An followed his words and thought for a while. Among the four major army princes, Nanyanghou had the most soldiers, Pingdonghou was the most cowardly, Zhenbeihou was obsessed with making money, and Jinxihou was addicted to beauty.But no matter where they start, they have occupied military power for many years, and it is not so easy to give up a piece of meat, let alone what Zhao Zhen wants is to take back the power of a military marquis.

"Oh? Zhenbei, Pingdong, Nanyang, Jinxi, these four military lords, whose head are you going to give to His Majesty?" Li An followed his words, waiting to see what good strategy he could come up with to snatch food from the tiger's mouth .

"The forces of the four major military lords are intertwined and complicated in the country of Li. Under the current situation, I have no way to directly win one of the forces. I can't take any of the heads of these four military lords." Mei Shao flatly denied it.

Unexpectedly, he agreed to Zhao Zhen's request in advance without even thinking about the future. Li An was a little surprised; "Then, is there still time for us to pack our luggage and run?"

"Who said there must be a war of arms? The issue of military power is a matter of position in the final analysis. After killing the military marquis, Zhao Zhen will not lead the troops to the battlefield in person. He just wants to change to a general who obeys his orders, or a Someone who can stand by his side at critical moments." Mei Shao ignored Li An's teasing, "Otherwise, you think Zhao Zhen, Zhang Luozhuo, and Jinghe's marriage at this time is a coincidence? It still falls into the hands of his army commander."

"You mean to win over Ling Che?" Li An was a little surprised, "That's a tough nut to crack. When he helped His Majesty put down King Jing's rebellion, His Majesty's honor and favor kept him, but he didn't accept the kindness to stay in Ping Both. The Marquis of Jinxi is always lustful. Although he seldom interferes in military affairs, he will not be so confused as to hand over military power to someone who will betray him. I also heard that Wu Ce intends to betroth his daughter to He, this marriage is connected, so he can't get away."

Mei Shao raised her eyebrows: "Then have you ever heard the rumors about the idea between him and Jing and the eldest princess during the first martial arts competition?"

"Speaking of which, it was Ling Che who personally beheaded King Jing Zhao Jue. Jing He should hold grudges. Her son-in-law will definitely not be Ling Che." Li An said with certainty.

"Jing He has hatred for him, but Ling Che has intentions for her. Jinxi Hou is so ill, he is not staying in Jinxi, and he comes here to compete in martial arts to recruit relatives. Do you think he is in a hurry?" Mei Shao smiled and looked at him. Glancing at Li An, he likes to drink until he is slightly tipsy, and even his eyes are full of misty water vapor, which is very attractive.

"No one else knows what Ling Che is hiding, but I know it very well." Mei Shao, half of her body limp on the chair, waved to Li An and motioned him to listen to him, "I think I was the one who encouraged him back then. It has been seven years since he wrote letters to Jinghe."

Hearing this secret past, Li An was a little shaken: "If Ling Che really became this son-in-law, he would be on His Majesty's side on the surface, but in the final analysis, the gap between His Majesty and Jing and the Eldest Princess is also very important. No, something really happened. Ling Che was beaten to death by Jing He, so I'm afraid he won't help His Majesty."

"Your Majesty can have an army, but he absolutely cannot have an army that completely obeys his orders. Otherwise, what role would I have? I didn't come to Pingdu to help Zhao Zhen clean up the mess in the court."

Li An was silent for a few seconds, and couldn't help reminding: "There is Bai Bingchen beside Zhao Zhen, and he may not be able to see your check and balance."

"He can only trust me, because the sword is in my hand." Mei Shao chuckled, and Jian Shiliu, who had stood quietly aside for a long time, respectfully held the Qingshuang Sword.

"The world is big, and the rivers and lakes are far away. Ling Che has a chance of winning against a regular disciple of the Xuantian Union. Those weird movements and complicated changes can easily trip him up. Zhao Zhen needs me to set him straight. Lu, even if I have other thoughts, there is nothing he can do now." Mei Shao stroked the Qingshuang Sword's body, and said to the sword sixteen times, "This sword is fairly easy to use. It will be the final test in a few days Now, you have to let him embrace the beauty. But, don't let him win too easily."

Li An was completely relieved, and replied with a smile: "Since you want him to win, why don't you make things difficult for him?"

I thought that Mei Shao would not reply to his own words, but he propped his head up and thought about it seriously: "Maybe I don't want to see him fulfill his wish so easily."

His temper has been polished for a long time, and he is becoming more and more displeased with the perfection of others. Even if it is only a superficial perfection, he cannot be contaminated, as if reminding himself of how unbearable his situation is.

Li An was able to sense his temper, so he quickly changed the subject: "You have done a lot of business in Jianjian Villa. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about Jinxi Hou's serious illness. This Wu The policy is also a good one. None of his sons are up to the mark, and when you think about it carefully, it is really cheap for that boy Ling Che, and soon, all the beauties and military power will be in his pocket."

"There's nothing to be envious of. He has a weakness, and even if he has a thousand troops, he won't be able to overthrow the sky." Mei Shao sneered, "I have made him perfect, but I can also destroy him."

"What about Bai Bingchen? His position is not easy to move. Even if you do everything possible, it will be difficult to convict him." Li An knew that Bai Bingchen was the saddest hurdle in his way of revenge.

"Being the right minister of the court is really hard to shake. It is more humiliating to lose such a powerful person than to kill him." Mei Shao found that just talking about the ending of this person can make him lose his power. I felt a little pleased, "I'm not in a hurry to touch him, I haven't seen him for many years, and I still want to get close to him and reminisce about old relationships."

Li An lowered his voice: "I'm not talking about his official position in the court, I'm referring to the variables behind him. Since Li Guo was founded, the reputation of Fudi Pavilion in the world has long been deeply rooted. This tree The big tree is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and if there is a slight change, the hearts of the people will boil."

Perhaps it is clear to the bystanders, Li An really sees the situation of Li Guo too clearly.

If it is said that worshiping Buddha and discussing the Tao among the people of Li State is a kind of belief and prayer without support, then the Fudi Pavilion is the statue that stands in the hearts of the people of Li State.

The power ministers of each generation of the Li Kingdom are selected by the Fudi Pavilion, and the power of the emperor is bestowed by the Fudi Pavilion, and even the Li Kingdom was born in the hands of the Fudi Pavilion.

It all started when the Li Kingdom was founded.

According to historical records, Zhao Heyu, the founding monarch of the Li Kingdom, Mu Dedi, was originally just a small general in the army in troubled times.

One day, they marched to a canyon and camped.In the dream, I saw a dragon coming out of the canyon, heading southeast, and disappearing a hundred miles away.In the dream, the voice of an immortal came, saying: The dragon veins are buried deep in the southeast of Longfei, and the country will be built on it, and the foundation can be secured for 300 years.

Zhao Heyu woke up from the dream, and saw that the tent was as bright as day, and the noise of soldiers outside the tent was endless.He hurriedly got out of the tent, and saw a huge golden dragon rushing straight up from the canyon, circling three times in the sky above the tent, and heading southeast.Wherever it went, it broke through the twilight and scattered golden light.The roar of the dragon roared past, echoing for a long time.Zhao Heyu was astonished, thinking of what the fairy said in his dream, he thought to himself.

Just as the flames of war were gradually rising in various places, Zhao Heyu and the generals said that they could understand the gods, and the oracle had given instructions, so they set up troops.According to the dream, he established the capital at the place where the golden dragon disappeared, and named it Pingdu.

On the night of the establishment of the capital, he dreamed of an immortal, saying that there was a hermit on Cangshan Mountain outside the capital, who could help him achieve his great cause.Zhao Heyu followed the guidance of the immortals, burned incense, bathed, fasted for three days, and walked up the mountain with two entourages.Along the way, you can see deep and lush forests, whirling and green, birds jumping and frolicking, chirping and chirping in the lush greenery.

Walking halfway up the mountain, the sound of birds gradually faded away, and there was silence everywhere.The surrounding area was filled with thick fog, and as far as the eye could see, the distant peaks and near ridges all turned into pale black, flickering.

The attendants were frightened and dissuaded, thinking that there were spirits and monsters in the mountain who would harm each other.Zhao Heyu insisted on moving forward, walking a hundred steps back, there was the sound of bells slowly infiltrating, birdsong and insects were making noise everywhere, Zhao Heyu walked a few steps, the fog gradually dissipated, and the mountains woke up like a new bath.

There is a Tongtian Pagoda in front of you, which rises from the ground and reaches directly into the sky.In front of the pagoda, several white cranes are combing their feathers or pacing, enjoying themselves.

When the bell rang, a boy came out to welcome the guests. Zhao Heyu came forward to salute and express his intention.The boy bowed: "Mr. has been waiting in the back hall for a long time."

Zhao Heyu entered the pagoda with the boy who led the way, and asked Mr. De to leave the pass for a plan.

Mr. is very good at strategizing, and together with the patriarch of the Wu clan, he helped Zhao Heyu achieve great things. After six years of fighting, the world was pacified, all directions congratulated, and the founding of the country was Li.

After Emperor Mu De came to the throne, his husband resigned, but the emperor tried to persuade him to stay but to no avail.Before leaving, I asked my husband how to govern the country. The gentleman said: If you want to establish the century-old foundation of the Li country, the most important thing is to choose ministers.Every time an emperor ascends the throne, someone from Cangshan Mountain descends to select a good minister for the new emperor to assist the foundation of the Li Kingdom.Since then, the pagoda of Tongtian in Cangshan Mountain has been named Fudi Pavilion.

It has been more than three hundred years since Li Guo was founded.Three years ago, Emperor Muwen Zhao Zhen came to the throne, and the Fudi Pavilion selected Bai Bingchen as the current minister.

For 300 years, it has been circulated among the people that when a hunter in Cangshan lost his way, he saw the founder of the country, and his appearance was exactly as in the portrait, without any change.

The Fudi Pavilion is like a mirage in the Cangshan Mountains. Ordinary people are not allowed to see its true appearance. Only when the emperor changes, the ministers who are selected as the ministers of the world are lucky enough to enter the pavilion.

In the country, the Fudi Pavilion has the talent to govern the country and the country; in the people, the Fudi Pavilion is the symbol of the gods with good weather.For hundreds of years, it has been deeply rooted in the vast land of Li and has never wavered.
