Man Tanghong

Chapter 143 The Alone and Overwhelmed Li Yi

Because of the surname Wang who was separatist in the Tang Dynasty, it is very likely that he will be the only one left.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many kings with surnames have been canonized, many kings with surnames have been canonized, many kings with surnames have been killed, and many kings with surnames have been confiscated.

After Gao Kaidao turned his back on him, it seemed that he and Du Fuwei were the only ones who gave the surname to the separatist king of the Tang Dynasty.

When the battle in Mingshui City ended, Du Fuwei let Liu Heita go, Li Yuan was very dissatisfied, and secretly sent someone to pass a message to Du Fuwei.

Du Fuwei also gave Li Yuan a memorial to apologize.

Li Yuan reprimanded Du Fuwei for a few words, and the matter was temporarily exposed.

I thought everything would be all right, but who knew that Li Zitong, who Du Fuwei escorted to Chang'an City, ran away at this time, even though he was blocked by the officials of Lantian Pass when he reached Lantian Pass, he was also slaughtered.

But Du Fuwei sat on the wax.

Li Yuan didn't care that Du Fuwei was leading the army and followed Li Shimin to conquer Xu Yuanlang. An imperial edict was sent to Du Fuwei, calling Du Fuwei into the court.

What Li Yuan was thinking, there was almost no need to guess.

Li Yuan was just worried about Du Fuwei, and wanted to call Du Fuwei into the court, put it under his nose, and find an opportunity to seize Du Fuwei's power by the way.

If it was normal, Du Fuwei could still say he was sick, or find another reason to decline Li Yuan.

But at that time Du Fuwei was with Li Shimin, Li Shimin's tens of thousands of brave troops, and Li Yi's tens of thousands of brave troops, were by Du Fuwei's side.

Du Fuwei dared to say no, Li Shimin and Li Yi's conquest of Xu Yuanlang's army became a conquest of him.

Therefore, after Du Fuwei received Li Yuan's will, he was quite aggrieved and handed over all his soldiers and horses to his adopted son and general Wang Xiongdan, and handed over the government affairs of Dongnan Road to Fu Gongyou. Zi Kan Leng, and a group of swordsmen under Kan Leng rushed to Luoyang City first.

When Li Shimin's class teacher returned to the court, he returned to Chang'an with Li Shimin.

Du Fuwei was about to be cleaned up.

Li Yi looked very dazzling.

Li Yi felt the crisis, so he naturally wanted to make a plan.

After thinking for a long time, Li Yi decided to rely on Li Jiancheng and seek his protection.

Because Li Yi knew very well that the emperor after Tang Dynasty was between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng.

Li Shimin's troops are strong and strong, and his going to help Li Shimin is just icing on the cake, Li Shimin will not value him too much.

Li Jiancheng is different. Although Li Jiancheng is good in culture and morality, and has made some achievements in martial arts, he is far behind Li Shimin, and he doesn't have any powerful warriors or soldiers under his command.

If he helps Li Jiancheng, he will become a great help to Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng will definitely value him, and when Li Yuan wants to deal with him, Li Jiancheng will also protect him.

With his help, Li Jiancheng can make up for his shortcomings and fight against Li Shimin in court.

But Li Yi didn't put all his eggs in one basket, because at this time, Li Yuanji took the initiative to deliver it to his door just in time for his meeting.

Li Yi sent some favors along the way, and told the Xue brothers that after seeing Li Yuanji, he must tell Li Yuanji that he is loyal to Datang and never half-hearted. He also admires Li Yuanji very much. Whatever Yuanji wanted, as long as he had it, he could satisfy Li Yuanji.

I just hope that Li Yuanji can help him when he is in danger.

How to help him when he is in danger.

He didn't say it.

But his favor has been delivered, if he is in any danger, if he begs the door, Li Yuanji has to return his favor.

"During the banquet today, let's see His Royal Highness Qi's attitude, and let's talk."

Xue Wanshu murmured.

He guessed one or two of Li Yi's thoughts, he knew that when Du Fuwei was conscripted into the court, Li Yi felt a sense of crisis, and urgently needed to make friends with Li Yuan's sons, hoping to get shelter.

He just didn't guess that Li Yi was betting on both ends.

Because although Li Yi had already decided to attach himself to Li Jiancheng's sect, he hadn't taken any substantial actions, nor had he revealed it to anyone.

"We have lived under Mr. Li's family for many years, and Mr. Li treated us well. We still have to pay attention to what Mr. Li said."

Xue Wanjun said solemnly.

Although they are under Li Yi's sect, they have been obeying Li Yi's orders and working for Li Yi, but in name, they have always lived in Youzhou, not Li Yi's subordinates.

This is also the reason why when Li Yuanji asked Li Yi's dignitaries, Li Yi didn't hand over the documents to the court, but handed them over without hesitation.

"I will never forget Mr. Li's generosity, and I know what to do."

Xue Wanshu glanced at Xue Wanjun, nodded and said.

Xue Wanche saw that the three elder brothers were going to say what Li Yi had explained at the banquet, so he didn't get entangled in this issue. He said again: "Then when is it appropriate for me to discuss with His Royal Highness King Qi?"

Xue Wanshu looked gloomy, and said quietly: "It's best not to go anytime."

Xue Wanche stared, "Why? I've already made an appointment with him, how can I break my promise? Brother, you said that a man can't break his promise."

Xue Wanshu gave Xue Wanche a white look, "Then just pretend I didn't say it now."

Xue Wanche's eyes widened.

Xue Wanshu smiled wryly and said: "Since he insists on competing with His Royal Highness Qi, then you can let him go. Didn't His Royal Highness say that he is no longer a child, and he should not be under our wings anymore? Go out to suffer, grow and grow.

Besides, since His Royal Highness King Qi wants to use our brother, he won't hurt him or hate us. "

When Xue Wanshu heard this, he thought about it for a while, then nodded helplessly and said, "What you said makes sense, then let him try it."

Xue Wanche's eyes fixed on the eldest brother, then on the second brother, and said with some displeasure: "Do you think I can't beat him?"

Xue Wanshu and Xue Wanshu rolled their eyes together.

It's not nonsense.

If you can fight, who will stop you.

After all, among Li Yuan's sons, there is only such a superb one, who is willing to put down his body to compete with his subordinates, and he is not afraid of losing face if he loses.

"With his body, I can't beat him?"

Xue Wanche shouted angrily.

Xue Wanshu and Xue Wanshu ignored him, but discussed it.

"There was a big battle here just now, and it was a small number of people who beat the crowd. His Royal Highness Qi should have shown his skills. Let's go to inquire separately later to see how strong His Royal Highness is. We can also advise Wan Che so that he will not lose. It's too miserable."

"Well, then wait for the banquet in the evening to ask other people."

"..."

Xue Wanche was ignored, and was even more annoyed, "What do you mean by this? How can you strengthen others' reputation and destroy your own prestige?"

Xue Wanshu glared at Xue Wanche angrily, "You are itchy, aren't you? How dare you yell at us."

Xue Wanche was scared all of a sudden, and muttered with his mouth curled up: "You can do whatever you like, I won't listen anyway."

Xue Wanshu ignored Xue Wanche.

……

Time flies to night.

After resting, Ma Zhou, the Xue brothers, and all the brave men felt much better.

Under the leadership of the guards of Prince Qi's Mansion, Ma Zhou, the Xue brothers, and a group of brave men with official positions rushed to the Guanya in Guancheng for a banquet. The soldiers entertained.

When Ma Zhou and the Xue brothers arrived at Guanya, Li Yuanji had already prepared everything, and Luo Shixin, Su Dingfang, Xie Shufang, Li Zhongwen, and Yu Wenbao had also arrived.

Li Yuanji took Luo Shixin and his party to greet him at the gate of the Guanya.

For the Xue brothers, Li Yuanji gave great courtesy.

When we met, Li Yuanji smiled and said: "You are all famous brave men in Tang Dynasty. I am very happy to join my family. I have prepared some thin wine to cleanse the dust for you. I hope you will not be disgusted."

Headed by Xue Wanshu, everyone said in unison: "Don't dare..."

Li Yuanji nodded with a smile, and made a gesture of invitation, "Please enter the mansion."

Xue Wanshu and the others dared not say it again, and they followed closely after Li Yuanjimai stepped into the Guanya.

Li Yuanji can be courteous to corporals, but they can't forget their identities, rules and etiquette.

After entering the Guanya, after sitting down.

Xue Wanshu said to Xue Wanshu indiscriminately: "The person who has been with His Royal Highness King Qi doesn't seem to welcome us very much."

Xue Wanshu was talking about Yu Wenbao.

Yu Wenbao stared at him from beginning to end, fiercely, as if trying to find fault.

Anyone could tell he wasn't happy.

He wasn't too happy either.

Because his sense of crisis has already reached Tianlinggai.

In the past, he was a prominent figure in Prince Qi's Mansion, but not now.

The newcomers to Prince Qi's Mansion are more powerful than the last, and they all want to ride on his head.

He deeply felt that his position was almost overwhelmed.

Although Li Yuanji did not confer any official title on the Xue brothers, it was certain that the Xue brothers were riding on his head.

After all, they brought more than 10,000 elite soldiers and generals to the Qi Palace, and each of them had titles, the highest of which was the Duke of the County.

How could he be subservient to a county magistrate?

"Don't worry about it. Our brother's service in the Qi Palace will definitely threaten the status of some people in the Qi Palace. It is reasonable for them to see that we are unhappy."

Xue Wanshu said to Xue Wanshu indifferently.

After saying this, Xue Wanshu said again: "How is the strength of His Royal Highness King Qi?"

As soon as Xue Wanshu mentioned this, Xue Wanshu's face was full of excitement, "When I get back in a while, let Wanjun beat Wanche up."

"Ok?"

Xue Wanshu looked at Xue Wanshu in astonishment.

Xue Wanshu lowered his voice, a little excited, and a little unbelievable: "His Royal Highness Qi is not a human being. A giant tree weighing hundreds of catties is thrown out like a crossbow.

Wan Che met him and took a hit, probably lying on the bed for half a month.

He was beaten anyway, so it would be better to let Wan Jun beat him up. "

Xue Wanshu stared in astonishment, and looked at Xue Wanshu in disbelief.

Are you kidding me?
Huge logs weighing hundreds of catties are thrown out like throwing crossbow guns. Can manpower reach this level?

Xue Wanshu saw the doubts in Xue Wanshu's heart, and immediately said: "Everyone knows about Weize Guan, you can ask someone to find out."

Xue Wanshu still didn't believe it.

But he didn't have a chance to speak, because Li Yuanji had finished his "opening remarks" and raised his wine glass, "I'm very touched that you are brave and come from a long distance. I would like to offer you a glass of bravery."

"Win the drink!"

"Win the drink!"

"..."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.
