Chapter 414
The Li family in Longxi originated from Li Chong, the prefect of Longxi in the Qin Dynasty. After three generations of business operation, Li Chong became a local prominent family. His grandson Li Xin later became a general of the Qin Dynasty and was granted the title of Marquis of Longxi.

In the Han Dynasty, an important person came out of the Li family in Longxi—the parachutist Li Guang!Later, Li Ling, the grandson of Li Guang, was captured and surrendered to the Huns, which caused the reputation of the Li family in Longxi to decline.

During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Li family in Longxi rose again in troubled times, and there was also a Xiliang king, Li Hao, who was called the first emperor of the Li family during the Sixteen Kingdoms period.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there were many famous literati. In the Sui Dynasty, the Li family in Longxi was already a prominent family with power, which was one of the five surnames and seven families in the legend.

It is worth mentioning that Li Yuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is actually also of the Li family blood in Longxi. Of course, Li Yuan's blood from the Hu people from the matriarchal line is not considered. After all, the succession of the family depends on the man.

Li Yuan is the descendant of Li Hao, the king of Xiliang in the Li family of Longxi. Therefore, during the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan won the world and adopted the surname Li as the country's surname.

But by this time, Li Yuan's branch was already a distant branch, not a direct line. Before Li Yuan became emperor, the Longxi Li family had always looked down on them. Now that they are emperor, they want to rely on them, but they are still not accepted.

That's right, Li Yuan is leaning on the Li family in Longxi, because the dynasty of a thousand-year-old family and a century-old dynasty, in the aristocratic circle of the family, the emperor is really nothing special, and the royal family dare not mess with these big families. To deal with aristocratic families, we can only use the entire imperial examination system instead of directly mobilizing troops?

After becoming the emperor, he was still looked down upon by the Li family in Longxi, and even the patriarch of the Li family was afraid that Li Yuan would steal the authentic name of the Li family, and would annex the Li family from Longxi from then on!
Li Yuan was very dissatisfied, and since then became an independent branch, that is, the Li family of the royal family, who worshiped their ancestors as Taoist Li Er (that is, the sage Laozi), so although the royal family and the Longxi Li family were related, they had already split.

Li Chengdao and his wife first borrowed [-] troops from the Lingzhou camp in Shuofang, and then rushed to Liangzhou (now Wuwei, Gansu Province) with the army, found Li Xiaogong and borrowed [-] troops, and then went straight to the south of the Longxi Li family's lair - Huaihuai Li (now Lintao County).

The Longxi Li family has deep roots in the local area, and is located in the rear of Liangzhou. It is impossible for Li Xiaogong to be unaware of the fact that the Gaochang transport team was completely stopped, but he also knew that this was a war belonging to Bai Fan. No one dared to face a big family alone, so Li Xiaogong didn't get any news or ask for help, and Li Xiaogong didn't act rashly.

"Great Elder, Great Elder! It's not good. The messenger came to report that Li Chengdao, the king of Anlu County, led an army of [-] menacing Chaohuaili. It seems that the situation is going to attack us!" The elder reported.

The patriarch of the Li family was not there, and he took five thousand elite soldiers to Fanyang Lu's family, so now the patriarch of the Li family is in charge.

"What are you panicking about? The Li clan in Longxi has stood for thousands of years, who dares to do anything to us? Tell me what's going on?" the Great Elder shouted.

"According to the information obtained by the spies, the king of Anlu County set off from Chang'an, brought [-] troops to Shuofang, and then transferred to Liangzhou to add another [-] troops, making a total of [-] troops, to come to Huaili. What exactly happened, the reason is unknown.

Are you saying that it is because of us detaining Bai Fan's goods?This Li Chengdao is Bai Fan's proud disciple. " said the butler.

The Great Elder pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "That's right, it's likely to be like this. I didn't expect that Bai Fan was really capable. He could even move the royal family who had been watching from the sidelines. The old man didn't believe it. What about the royal family? The [-]-strong army and how?

If you really dare to attack me, Mrs. Li, everyone in our local area is a soldier, and we are not afraid of his 2 people.

Since they were for the useless cotton goods, they informed the guards that they should act in a hurry, and there was no need to stick to it. They set fire to all the cotton in the backlog of vehicles, and withdrew our troops, so as not to be caught by others. "

The housekeeper clapped his hands and said: "Great, the Great Elder is smart, the goods are useless to us, if they are set on fire and no one needs to guard them, it will also cut off the enemy's wealth."

"Well, inform your subordinates that their chariots and horses will be burned one by one in the future.

Li Chengdao is here, we can't let him catch our people, so keep it secret.

I'll go meet the eldest son of Prince Jin's Mansion for a while, and see how great the disciples from Zhongnan Academy are! "

On the other side, on the road from Liangzhou to Huaili.

"Big sister, I don't agree with us splitting into two groups. You are a weak woman, how can you go out alone?" Li Chengdao persuaded Big Sister Bai.

There are still two days to arrive in Huaili. Li Chengdao decided to divide his troops into two groups, one to Xingshi to question the crime, and the other to clear the transportation lines around Huaili.

However, Big Sister Bai proposed that she would lead 1 people to dredge the surrounding transportation teams. This surprised Li Chengdao. Looking at Big Sister Bai's quietness, how could she do this kind of martial arts?
"Who is a weak woman? My elder brother said, there are no weak women in the Bai family. In your eyes, am I a weak woman? Why don't we compete and see who can beat the other? Don't think that you have learned a few tricks of three-legged cat kung fu." The big man has behaved." Bai Damei said dissatisfied.

... Li Chengdao shook his head quickly.

Back then, the two had sparred in private, and their Mohist swordsmanship was brutally tortured. God knows what kind of peerless martial art was passed on to this quiet fiancée by her master. She was so powerful. Maybe only Qin Huaidao in the army could fight against her.

"No, no, no, I mean you are not suitable for leading troops. The 1 people should be led by the deputy general. You have no battlefield experience. If there is a fight, I will worry about you."

Hearing this, Big Sister Bai was in a better mood, after all, the other party cared about her.

"You also said that the lieutenant general is fine. I'll just follow along. Don't worry, this Li family in Longxi is too shameless. He dared to cut off the business route of my Bai family. As the Bai family, since I'm here, I naturally want to vent my anger on my brother's behalf." , I have a hundred martial arts guards! Don't worry about me.

On the contrary, you go deep into the opponent's lair, so you have to be careful. "

"It's nothing, I'm the prince of the Tang Dynasty, they're treason if they move me, the Li family in Longxi doesn't have the guts, I still have [-] elite soldiers to protect me!

You can go and have a look if you want, pay attention to safety, don't come to Huaili after the matter is settled, after all, you are from the Bai family, if the other party shamelessly detains you, then the master will be passive. "

"Oh, I see."

After the discussion between the two, Li Chengdao ordered the deputy general, Attorney Pei (the eldest son of Pei Ji), to protect Bai Damei first, and the task second, and then 2 people left.

Not long after we parted, Sister Bai took the initiative to bring Wu Yingwei to find Lawyer Pei.

"General Pei, call all the commanders, I have something to tell."

"This... Ma'am, why are you looking for the commanders? The prince said that he will protect you, so just watch us do it."

Lawyer Pei didn't think about it, what's going on?The young lady suddenly said this, why does it seem like she is asking for command?

Big Sister Bai sneered and said, "What are you going to do? What are you going to do? When you get there, he will transform into a good local citizen. You can't even find him. How can you talk about opening up business?
Leave this matter to me and call the commander-in-chief. "

This... Lawyer Pei pondered.

Although this statement is reasonable, but like his father, Attorney Pei is a rigid person who never thought of having a woman in power.

"It doesn't matter, the general has his own countermeasures. Madam can just sit down. It's up to us men to lead the troops!"

Big Sister Bai saw it, did she despise our daughter's family so much?
Xiu frowned, and shouted in a low voice: "Wu Yingwei, protect the surroundings, I want to have a game or two with General Pei!"
