Refine Gu to become immortal from one person

Chapter 373: Everyone's Scheme (Two in One)

The two countries of Jin and Qi bordered on each other. On the one hand, Li Maozhen fought unannouncedly and brazenly sent troops. On the other hand, he sent experts from Huanyinfang to the hinterland of Jin to spread the news of Li Siyuan's death.

Regardless of the fact that before the death of the principal Li Siyuan, the Jin State had almost become the number one vassal, but its internal power structure was actually not stable.

It can even be said to be the most unstable of the many vassal states!
This is a hidden danger that has been buried since the time of Li Keyong, the former king of Jin.

A stable power structure pays attention to orderly inheritance, so that no matter what accidents occur, first of all, internal chaos will not immediately occur.

But back then, Li Keyong wanted to rapidly develop the state of Jin on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to hide himself behind the scenes to avoid the sight of unscrupulous handsome men, and he even had to find a way to limit his own son Li Cunxu from being too powerful to make himself empty. In order to get the best of all three, he came up with a way - to adopt a son.

This is the origin of Tongwenguan Thirteen Taibao.

In fact, from a functional point of view, the Thirteen Taibao, the Nine Heavens Saint Ji of Huanyinfang, and the masters of Xuanming Sect are just subordinates.

But just to guard against Li Cunxu, Li Keyong directly promoted them all to become Li Cunxu's sworn brother, and he was not even willing to let Li Cunxu be the leading brother.

This led to a very serious problem, that is, when both Li Keyong and Li Cunxu died, logically speaking, their adopted sons could inherit the state of Jin and become the new King of Jin.

In the end, Li Siyuan did succeed in taking that position with the support of the bad guy.

So now that Li Siyuan is dead, those sworn brothers who missed the first chance, how could they be willing to miss the second chance again?

Among the thirteen Taibao, Li Siyuan, Li Cunxu, and Li Sizhao who ranked first, second and third all died, so Li Cunren, the fourth Taibao and the head of Renzi sect, was the first to stand up after getting the news.

He sent a letter to summon several other Taibao who are currently in Jinyang to gather in Jinwangfu.

"My virtuous brothers, you should have heard the news of the elder brother's death. Now, according to the order of seniority, the Holy Master of the Tongwen Museum and the King of Jin should be brothers. Do you have any objections?"

Li Cunli looked around at the sworn brothers present with a smile on his face, and then he planned to get up and take the seat that he had never expected to reach before.

"Wait a minute, fourth brother."

Dressed in a white robe, Li Cunli, the sixth eunuch who looked gentle and elegant, closed his folding fan with a "snap", stretched out his arms to block Li Cunren's way forward, and then said slowly:
"Brother's news is just rumors in the market, without the slightest evidence, how can you make a conclusion? If you sit down today and he returns to Brother, how should you deal with yourself?"

"Huh? This..."

His words not only stunned Li Cunren, but also poured cold water on some other sect masters below who had slightly fiery eyes.

Li Cunzhi, the Seventh Taibao, and Li Cunxin, the Eighth Taibao, immediately stopped what they were about to say when they heard the words, looked at each other, and then turned their eyes to the woman at the back—the only woman among the Thirteenth Taibao, the tenth The Third Taibao, Li Cunren, the master of Renzi sect!
"Little sister, you are in charge of the Department of Shang, and you are the best at inquiring about news. Have you ever known the details?"

The original famous thirteen Taibao, now there are only five of them left, plus one old fifth, Li Cunyi, the head of the Yizi sect, who has almost made it clear that he will betray Tongwenguan.

"I don't know!"

Under everyone's gaze, Li Cunren replied coldly without showing any emotion on his masked face.

Li Cunli is Li Siyuan's hardcore supporter, and he was also the one who left Jinyang to stabilize the overall situation. After hearing Li Cunren's answer, his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile:
"Little sister, since this is the case, why don't you take the Ministry of Shang to find the trace of the eldest brother? The country cannot be left alone, no matter what, we must first confirm the news of the eldest brother, so that we can do things."

He spoke kindly and smiled gently, as if he really was a brother who loved his sister, but what Li Cunren saw in his eyes was the threat hidden deep in his eyes.

After all, as the person in charge of the Department of Shang, she had chased and killed Li Siyuan under Li Keyong's order, and even nearly killed him.

So after Li Siyuan came to power, although she was saved, she was forced to take the poison. Only Li Siyuan and Li Cunli knew about this.

But what they didn't know was that Li Cunren was discovered by Li Xingyun and his team when Li Cunren released the plague virus in Shu. Relying on the Huayang acupuncture method passed down from Yuan Tiangang, Li Xingyun had already dissolved the toxins in Li Cunren's body.

As for the reason why she came back from this trip, who has already asked her to control her...

Li Cunren's gaze slightly touched Li Cunli's, then bowed his head and left silently.

Seeing Li Cunren leave obediently, the corner of Li Cunli's mouth curled into a slight arc. Even if the elder brother Li Siyuan really died, among the remaining five brothers, he who controlled Li Cunli would be the one with the greatest chance.

"Okay, fourth brother, and the seventh and eighth brothers. I will leave the elder brother's matter to the younger sister to investigate. We have more important matters to discuss right now."

Unknowingly, Li Cunli surpassed the fourth brother Li Cunren and took control of the right to speak on the court.

shuh~
He spread out the map, pointed at the junction of Jin, Qi, and Liang, and said in a serious voice: "Li Maozhen personally led the Qi army from Fengxiang to Hezhong Mansion, and now they have arrived in Puzhou. Judging from their marching route, I am afraid that They came straight to Taiyuan."

With a swipe of his finger, Li Cunli moved from the west of Jin to the south.

"Instigated by Li Maozhen, Shu, Chu, and Wu all have changes, and the southern border must also be guarded against. What do you think about this?"

"A mere Qi country has already been beaten to half-use by Zhu Youzhen, how dare you come to take advantage of us?"

Li Cunren waved his hand and looked at the three righteous brothers, "It's a pity that the tenth brother is not here. Which good brother is willing to lead the army and teach them a lesson for my brother?"

The tenth brother he was talking about was Li Cunxiao, who was known as the number one fierce general in the state of Jin. He was more than ten feet tall and had boundless strength. He could even charge alone on the battlefield.But he was killed by Zhu Youwen, the ghost king of Xuanming Sect a long time ago.

Swept by Li Cunren's eyes, the eyes of Li Cunzhi and Li Cunxin flickered, but they couldn't make up their minds.

Logically speaking, at the moment when the state of Jin is in chaos, it is definitely not a loss to have a large army in your hands. Whether it is fighting for the throne of King Jin or saving your own life, you can advance and retreat more freely.

But the more this is the case, the more suspicious they are. Doesn't Li Cunren not understand these reasons?
Is he asking this to test who has the ambition to compete with him?
Could it be that as soon as he agreed with his front foot, Li Cunren threw a cup with his back foot as a sign, calling a large number of knives and axes to kill him on the spot?

One of them is famous, the other is famous, and they wait and see each other for a long time, but they don't have the courage.

In the end, it was Li Cunli who stood up: "I would like to share my worries for the fourth brother."

"it is good!"

Li Cunren clapped his palms and said with a smile, "Then I will trouble the sixth younger brother. As long as the Qi army is expelled, Shu, Chu, Wu and other idiots will naturally understand that the prestige of our Jin country should not be violated lightly, and the crisis will be resolved by itself."

Seeing that Li Cunli easily won the military power, Li Cunzhi and Li Cunxin immediately began to regret it, so they hurried up: "Fourth brother, we are willing to go to the south to guard against the Three Kingdoms of Shu, Chu, and Wu."

But unfortunately, after sending Li Cunli away, Li Cunren's face was not so gentle.He looked at the two younger brothers with greedy eyes in front of him, and waved his sleeves in disdain: "Didn't I say that? After dealing with the leading Qi country, the rest of the countries can be settled without a fight. Go down."

Seeing the backs of Li Cunzhi and Li Cunxin going away, Li Cunren sneered.

The reason why he was willing to give Li Cunli troops was because he saw the relationship between Li Cunli and Li Cunren, and the second was because Li Cunli was Li Siyuan's die-hard fan. It is convenient for you to do things by paying for it.

But Li Cunzhi and Li Cunxin don't have this problem.

Besides, although Li Cunli's martial arts are high, he has never led a soldier before, and Qi Wang Li Maozhen is a good fighter who climbed up from the bottom step by step with his military skills.

Sending Li Cunli to fight this time may not mean that he wants to borrow a knife to kill someone.

"Anyway, no matter who wins or loses, I can accept it."

Li Cunren opened and closed his lips, talking to himself silently.

……

……

Li Cunren has his own little calculations, and Li Cunli naturally does not give in too much.

Although he led the army, he did not choose to rush to the front line of Puzhou to fight the Qi army, but marched leisurely and leisurely all the way.

"My lord, aren't we going to rescue Puzhou? Why..."

The master under his command was a little puzzled, and asked about his background.

"Hum,"

Li Cunli smiled softly, "Everything is decided before action. I'm still waiting for news. After all, I didn't come to this army to fight Li Maozhen..."

At this moment, a letter eagle flitted through the air and made a sharp cry.

"coming!"

Li Cunli's expression brightened when he heard the sound, he raised his hand to catch Xinying, and removed a small bamboo tube from its claw.

Open it and take a look, and immediately rein in the horse.

"The whole army stops, the rear turns to the front, and returns to Jinyang!"

……

……

Without Li Cunli's support, the Jin army in Puzhou could not withstand Li Maozhen's repeated attacks.

Although the strength of the Jin State is indeed much stronger than that of the Qi State, there is no situation where the soldiers of one government can resist the power of the other country.

After puzhou was broken, Hezhong Mansion fell under the rule of Qi State.

Li Maozhen took a short rest and continued to march northward with the Jin army wrapped up in surrender, intending to wipe out the passing in one go and swallow the northern territory of Jin at the same time.

As for the south, it is left to Shu, Wu, Chu, and the possible remnants of Jin to fight for it, so as to allow time for Qi to develop.

However, just as he was about to lead the army to set off again, he found a group of people standing in front of him.

"plum……"

As soon as the voice came out, Li Maozhen turned his gaze, "Little sister, you should be behind Fengxiang and stabilize Qi country now, not here."

The so-called three armies go first without using food and grass. Although Li Maozhen's trip was a blitzkrieg idea, it does not mean that logistics is not important.And more importantly, if the brothers and sisters were not around, who would be able to resist the Qi Kingdom's mainland being attacked?
This is also the root cause of the fact that the territory of Qi Kingdom has not been expanded in the sixteen years since Li Maozhen left.And if she stays in the country of Qi, she will not have enough powerful generals to go out and conquer.

Now that brother and sister are married, one inside and one outside are the best combination, but they didn't expect...

"Brother Wang..."

The empress raised her head and was about to explain, but saw Li Xingyun wave her hand.

"Li Maozhen, now you know how to ask Qi country what to do? What about the sixteen years before? When you left for so long on your own way and caused Qi's people's livelihood to decline, didn't you think about what they should do?"

"This is Qi's domestic affairs, as well as this king's family affairs. Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to comment?"

Although Li Maozhen recognized Li Xingyun, but now that he has respected Li Xingyun as the emperor, it is naturally impossible to admit that the person in front of him is also Li Xingyun.

"I?"

Li Xingyun carelessly raised his hand and pointed at himself, "If you don't want to change your name or surname, I am Li Xingyun!"

"Pretending to be the emperor, do you know what the crime is?"

"You say I'm impersonating, so I'm impersonating? I also said that yours is fake!" Li Xingyun choked.

"As we all know, the Longquan sword is in the hands of the emperor,"

Li Maozhen didn't panic at all, and said calmly, "You said you were, but where is your Longquan sword?"

"you!"

Li Xingyun gritted his teeth angrily as he looked at the Longquan sword held behind Li Maozhen's back.

After the fake Li Xingyun got the support of Tongwenguan and Xuanmingjiao, he always had the upper hand when facing Li Xingyun, and the Longquan sword was naturally taken away by him.Now after going around and going around, it fell into Li Maozhen's hands.

"Actually, if you want to prove yourself, there are other ways."

Li Maozhen changed the topic.

"What way?"

"Except for the Longquan sword, according to legend, only Li's blood can open the treasure of Longquan... If your blood can open it, I will admit that you are the real Li Xingyun."

"Damn it! Don't try to trick me into opening Longquan for you!"

Today's Li Xingyun is not so easy to be deceived, and he saw through Li Maozhen's trick on the spot.

"Since you have no way to prove yourself, you are treasonously trying to pretend to be the emperor. This king is deeply favored by the emperor, and I should remove the treason for the emperor!"

Li Maozhen teleported to Li Xingyun in a flash, and slapped her head with a palm full of purple inner energy.

No one expected that they were chatting peacefully just now, but suddenly Li Maozhen killed the killer, and everyone was panicked. The palm wind has already blown Li Xingyun's hair.

At the critical moment, the Empress who practiced the Illusory Sound Jue like Li Maozhen suddenly pulled out layers of phantoms to block Li Xingyun, and took the blow for him.

Bang!
Li Maozhen's slap was intended to seriously injure Li Xingyun, so she didn't hold back much. Even the Empress received a hasty slap, and the corners of her mouth overflowed a little.

"You want to be my enemy?"

Looking at the younger sister standing in front of her, Li Maozhen's eyes were gloomy and unbelievable, "Just because of this person who pretends to be the emperor?"

"Brother Wang, he... may not be a fake, so in order to prevent elder brother from making a big mistake, don't try to touch him with me today." The empress looked up at Li Maozhen without flinching.

"..."

Li Maozhen stopped in her tracks, carefully looked at the younger sister who hadn't seen her in sixteen years and seemed to have changed a lot, and then looked at Li Xingyun who was blocked by her with disdainful eyes.

"If you are really capable, don't hide behind a woman."

"Right on my mind!"

Li Xingyun shouted, "Let's go shoulder to shoulder!"

　I went back to my hometown for two days, and then the update returned to normal.
