The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 574
For Li Xiushu, he can not want the world.It's just that he didn't dare to say these words clearly, for fear of losing the hearts of these old ministers.

If their hearts were chilled, the hope of rescuing their sister would be even slimmer.

Li Wangyuan and Li Xiushu have lived together in the Dadu Palace for decades, and this brother-sister relationship is far beyond the imagination of these former Western Xia officials.

It's a pity that they don't know, otherwise, they probably wouldn't always use the general trend of the world to persuade Li Wangyuan, who values ​​his sister and not the world.

Fortunately, among these courtiers, there are also discerning people.

Zhongsun Qifu slowly walked out of the ranks.

He is the oldest and has seen the most.Looking at Li Wangyuan's expression at this time, he couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

After talking about this, the prince still misses Princess Xiushu.If he can't see this kind of thinking, it will be considered that he has lived for so many years in vain.

Pulling out the old Western Xia forces from the cracks with one hand, Zhongsun Qifu, who grew up quietly like a grass, could not even have such a little vision.

He cupped his hands towards Li Wangyuan, and said: "Prince, the princess will naturally be saved, but the old minister thinks that it must be exchanged with Kuizhou."

When he said this, not only Li Wangyuan was surprised, but even the officials and generals in the palace were shocked.

They have never heard Master Zhongsun Qifu say this.

As everyone knows, Zhongsun Qifu also came up with the method when they first came up with advice.

Under Li Wangyuan's expectant gaze, he slowly opened his mouth and said again: "The Song Dynasty threatened our court with Princess Xiushu, why can't our court coerce them with the Song Dynasty royal family? My Western Xia royal family is withered, and their Great Song Dynasty is also not much better. The whole In the court, there are only two people, Emperor Zhao Shi and Guangwang Zhao Bing."

There was light in someone's eyes.

Li Wangyuan slightly raised his buttocks from the chair, "Master Zhongsun means... to hold Zhao Bing hostage?"

After all, he is not without the slightest political sensitivity.

Zhongsun Qifu nodded lightly, "Exactly. Zhao Bing assigned Yongzhou, we only need to send masters to take him here, and it will be easy to change the princess back to the court."

Li Wangyuan frowned and remained silent for a while, then dropped his buttocks again, and finally nodded.

In fact, with his temperament, he is not willing to do that contradictory thing.But right now, he obviously has no other choice.

He was unwilling to go back on his word, and the ministers below forced him to go back on his word.

Someone looked at Zhongsun Qifu, "Then I would like to ask Mr. Zhongsun, this Kuizhou, should we take it or not?"

Zhongsun Qifu smiled lightly and said, "Of course. Right now, Song Dynasty and Shuzhong haven't made up their minds to tear their faces apart. If such an opportunity is missed, wouldn't it be a disappointment to God's will?"

All the officials and generals in the hall also laughed lightly.

The situation in the world has developed to the point where they are growing at an extremely fast speed, but it can really be said that God is helping them.

Li Wangyuan discarded all the remaining hesitation in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "In that case, all generals obey orders!"

"The end is here!"

All military generals standing on the right side of the hall fell to their knees.

Li Wangyuan said: "My prince ordered you to immediately rectify the troops and horses and gather food and grass. In a month's time, send troops to Kuizhou!"

"The last general takes orders!"

On this day, all civil servants and generals in Xixia felt refreshed.

Being able to take Kuizhou and save Princess Xiushu, at least she should stop arguing with the prince over this matter.It is said that you can't have both, this time, they say that you can't have both.

"Master Zhongsun, you stay here."

When everyone was about to leave the mansion, Li Wangyuan spoke out to leave Zhongsun Qifu behind.

Zhongsun Qifu was smiling, with wisdom in his eyes, and when everyone left, he asked Li Wangyuan with a smile, "The prince wants to ask who I plan to send to kidnap the Guangwang Zhao Bing?"

Of course, Li Wangyuan was very polite to Zhongsun Qifu, and he didn't mind boasting about it, "Master Zhongsun is worthy of being my Xixia think tank. This prince's wisdom is far beyond my reach."

But if you really want to talk about it, Zhongsun Qifu seems to be worthy of this statement.

He smiled softly: "Prince, have you heard of Tingchao Mansion?"

Li Wangyuan pondered for a while, "I heard about it when I was in Dadu. It is said that it is a spy force that can be compared with Anzilou in Yuan Dynasty and Tianxiang Pavilion in Shuzhong."

Immediately, his eyes suddenly brightened, "Could it be that Tingchao Mansion is owned by me, Xixia?"

"Exactly."

Zhongsun Qifu said: "The veteran has secretly developed Tingchao Mansion for decades, but recently the prince has been worrying about Princess Xiushu, so the veteran has not told the prince about these trivial matters."

He said it was trivial, but on his face, he was naturally a little proud.

Li Wangyuan didn't care about this, he just said again: "Then Mr. Zhongsun, are you planning to let Tingchao Mansion take action?"

Zhongsun Qifu laughed loudly, "The Wuding Hall in the Song Dynasty is now very famous. In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a green forest camp. Even in the middle of Shu, there was a broken military school palace and its ambiguity. We, Xixia, should also let the people of Jianghu see our strength. The old minister Li After going down to Tingchao Mansion, there are still a group of masters of the rivers and lakes gathered in the mansion, gathered in the Yipin Hall, although it may not be comparable to the Green Forest Camp of the Yuan Dynasty, it is not difficult to rob that Zhao Bing."

"One Grade Hall?"

Li Wangyuan nodded involuntarily, "My prince has never heard of it in the Yuan Dynasty, how many masters are there?"

Zhongsun Qifu cupped his hands: "The old minister will present the roster and order talisman later. Yipintang will definitely not disappoint you, prince."

Li Wangyuan said with emotion, "It is really a blessing for me in Xixia to have Mr. Zhongsun."

After staying in the Western Xia Dynasty for such a long time, he naturally learned some ways of being a king, and at that moment he bowed to Zhongsun Qifu and said: "My prince would like to worship Mr. Zhongsun as the crown prince and grand tutor, and I also ask the grand tutor for permission." .”

He is the prince, but he is the only prince in Xixia, he is no different from the prince, and he will be the emperor of Xixia in the future.

At this time, worshiping Zhongsun Qifu as the prince and Taifu is tantamount to agreeing to Zhongsun Qifu's position as Taifu.

Since the Taifu is the emperor's teacher, he is not just a first-rank official in the court, but even more noble than an ordinary first-rank official.

Rao Zhongsun Qifu was already the most prestigious person in Xixia at this time, and he couldn't help being moved when he heard Li Wangyuan's words.There are even signs of old tears flowing.

What is he planning for Xixia painstakingly for so many years?
Originally, Li Wangyuan had no hegemony and lack of balance in the way of imperial rule, which made him inevitably disappointed.Now, there is finally some hope in my heart.

At least the prince can trust a veteran like him, and he is not stingy with favor.

If you don't know the way of the emperor, you can learn it.If you are narrow-minded by nature, there is really no hope.

The voice of this old minister who had endured Xixia for decades was choked with sobs, "Old minister... I am so grateful."

Li Wangyuan knelt down on the ground and kowtowed loudly, "In the future, Lord Zhongsun will be Wangyuan's only master, and also the only emperor master in Xixia."

Zhongsun Qifu hurriedly helped Li Wangyuan up, "The old minister will do his best to be the prince."

For a moment, it seemed that the master and apprentice were deeply in love.

Nearly 20 days have passed, and it is the end of March.

On the surface of the sea, merchant ships with the flag of the Hailong Gang are still heading north.But at this time, the lush and lush Liuqiu Island can finally be seen.

There are not many ships on the sea, and none of them have flags. They are just ordinary fishing boats.

The merchant ship sailed towards the port.

Zhao Dongting and the others were still sitting cross-legged in the cabin, and Xiao Douya was still holding the plain knife beside him.

Since Zhao Dongting and others showed their skills in the Dongsha Islands, they suddenly became estranged from Old Wutou and others.All the thugs and sailors dare not get too close to Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting was also happy to relax.

When you arrive at the port, you can see that there are many flags on the port.

There are many sea-going ships docked outside the port, and it looks like they haven't been out for a long time.

There were Liuqiu soldiers in khaki military uniforms standing around the port, their blades gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

"Master Zhao, Liuqiu is ahead."

Old Wutou's voice came from the deck into the cabin.

Zhao Dongting opened his eyes, went to the deck and looked towards the port, with a small smile on his lips, "Liu Qiu is determined to cut off the maritime trade with us, Da Song."

Then he looked at old Wutou, "I'm afraid our ship can't enter the port?"

Old Wutou smiled wryly, "Now merchant ships with paperwork are not allowed to enter the port, like us..."

"Oh!"

Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "Then turn around."

Old Wutou was surprised, "Young Master, this is it?"

Zhao Dongting said: "You can't enter the port, can it be that my son can go up to Liuqiu Island with this magnificent wave?"
