Horse on the World

Chapter 473

"I will take you farther!" It is still only a short sentence, but it contains many meanings. Different people have different understandings, but for senior officials in Dingzhou or Yizhou For the dignitaries, Li Qing's words conveyed a message to the world, that is, the Li family will openly compete in the world. This is good news for them, because in the future, they will succeed. The founding father of a new dynasty.This credit is enough for them to influence generations of descendants.As for the people under the jurisdiction of Yizhou or Dingzhou, the current ruler has brought them a richer and more stable life than before, so in order to maintain this stability and wealth, they are willing to pay for it.What's more, as far as they are concerned, there is no room for choice.

In Yizhou City, there is a mountain ridge that is completely artificially piled up. It is about tens of meters high and has a radius of tens of acres. The bigger it is, on the top of the mountain, there are many trees that are thicker and thicker, and I don't know how many years they have grown. Among these big trees, there is a towering and magnificent building. This mountain is a forbidden area of ​​Yizhou City. Because the building on this mountain is the ancestral hall of the Li family, and it is also the place where the spirits of the ancestors of the Li family lived. Today, a huge crowd ushered in a huge crowd at the foot of this usually sparsely populated mountain. Wherever they are, they all rushed back from all over the country, because today, the Li family is going to hold a grand ancestor worship activity.The core members of the Li family all know that this time is not just a simple ancestor worship, but also a power transfer ceremony for the Li family, and it is also Li's ambition to declare to the entire family that they will win the world.

"The clouds and mountains are green, and the way of heaven is impermanent. The river is turbulent, and life is also regrettable. A hundred years is a time of change, and there is no way to rely on it in the ages. The earth is old and the sky is barren, and the times are unconventional. But the stars are dark and the moon is dark, and the people are melancholy. This misty valley is filled with filial sons and virtuous grandchildren. Seek the tree from Qiao Zi, and the spiritual plant will wither alone; seek water from Heluo, and tears will flow in emptiness. Alas, alas!"

The ceremony was complicated, and after a whole day of large-scale ancestor worship activities, the final scene finally opened in the ancestral hall on the top of the mountain. An Guogong Li Huaiyuan started the sacrificial ceremony with a solemn face, and began to chant with a sad face. , Under the rows of ancestral tablets, the descendants of the Li family's ancestors were kneeling in darkness.

"The moon in the Qionglou is short, and the stars are not alone. The Xuantai is cold, and the Yaocao loses its fragrance.... Unfilial children and grandchildren, devout utensils, drinking and delicacy, offering sacrifices to the sky, daring to make speeches and pleading, all kinds of misery. The ancestors have spirits, I still pray for the food. Alas, I respectfully offer it to you to hear about it!"

As everyone in the audience responded to Yixi's spirit, I still prayed for the food, wailed and mourned, and respectfully heard four sentences, and then kowtowed heavily. After three worships and nine kowtows, this ancestor worship activity finally came to an end .

The lower-ranking Li family members began to withdraw from the main hall. At this time, night had fallen, and dozens of bull candles were quickly lit in the main hall, illuminating the entire hall transparently. In the hall, there were only a few As for the 20 core figures of the ancestors of the Li family, the waiters set up chairs in the hall, bowed and retreated, and closed the door of the hall.

In the middle of the main hall, there is a chair, which is Li Huaiyuan's seat, and on both sides of the lower head, there are nearly twenty chairs sideways. Li Qing is thinking about where he should go. In this hall, there are only a few people of his generation who are qualified to be in this hall, so wouldn't his seat be at the gate of the hall?Li Qing couldn't help frowning, seeing that everyone had already sat down, Li Qing had no choice but to walk to the chairs closest to the entrance of the main hall, where Li Zheng, Li Feng, Li Jun and others had already sat down.

"Qing'er, come here!" Li Huaiyuan shouted suddenly, turned around, Li Qing looked at Li Huaiyuan, Li Tuizhi sat down on the second chair knowingly.

"Your seat is here!" Li Huaiyuan pointed to the first chair on the left.

"This?" Li Qing was a little hesitant. After all, this is the ancestral hall of the ancestors, not any other place. Sitting there by himself, he pushed down most of the elders.

"Your position is here!" Li Huaiyuan said again, "You are also the protagonist of today's meeting! You deserve this position!"

For Li Qing, he certainly deserves it. It can be said that most of the current glory of the Li family is earned by him, and Li Huaiyuan has clearly conveyed it to everyone at the ceremony of handing over the flag at the city gate. A piece of information, Li Qing didn't hesitate anymore, strode over, stood in front of the chair, bowed slightly to the elders at the bottom, and sat down.

"Very good!" Li Huaiyuan said with a smile, "Do my part, this is my generation's demeanor!"

"Everyone, this year I will carry out the ancestor worship activities ahead of schedule, mainly for Qing'er!" After a pause, he continued: "Qing'er governs several states, has tens of millions of people under his jurisdiction, hundreds of thousands of people under his command, and manages many opportunities every day. Let’s take a trip to Yizhou, and take advantage of Qing’er’s return home this time, there are some things that need to be made clear to everyone.”

"Please show me the patriarch!" Everyone in the hall responded in unison.

"First, I have decided to make Qing'er the next generation patriarch of the Li clan. Sizhi, do you have any objections?" Li Huaiyuan was the first to turn to his eldest son, Li Sizhi.

Li Sizhi's face was calm. His father had already talked with him before, and this matter was expected. Although his father said it clearly at this time, he felt a little ups and downs in his heart, but he still stood up and said, "Qingfeng deserves it. No objection!"

"Very good!" Li Huaiyuan nodded in relief.

"Is there any objection?"

Even the original successor had no objection, what can the rest of the people say, there was a echo in the hall, and only Li Muzhi stood up to express objection, after all Li Qing was his son, and he grabbed the seat of the eldest brother again, He had to express something, but just as he stood up, he was interrupted by Li Huaiyuan, so he had to sit back awkwardly.

"Okay, this matter has been unanimously approved. The second is how will I go in the future, Mrs. Li? I am already old, and I just want to stay at home and raise my grandchildren, enjoy my grandchildren, and enjoy the happiness of my family." , So, I want Qing'er to talk about the way forward!"

Li Huaiyuan made a gesture to Li Qing, and Li Qing stood up abruptly, bowed to Li Huaiyuan, walked to the middle of the hall, and said word by word: "Everyone, uncles and brothers, God bestowed nine tripods on my family Li. , will be condemned by God!"

There was a buzzing discussion in the hall, and Li Qing officially expressed his ambition to overthrow the Chu Dynasty and establish the Li Family. , the other side of success is failure, and failure will wipe out the Li clan and cease to exist.

"It is of course very difficult to take the opposite way, but I think that when I Li Qingchu established Dingzhou, I had nothing. Didn't I walk all the way here? The road is right under our feet. It depends on how we walk!"

"The world is in great chaos today, all the heroes are fighting together, and they have been fighting for several years. Although Emperor Tianqi has successfully overturned the powerful family politics of Dachu, he has also planted countless hidden dangers. My Li family is sitting on Dingfu and has all the gold in Luzhou, and In a short time, the areas held by the Lu family in the north and the Zeng family in the east along Liao and Shenzhou will also all fall into my hands. This will not only allow my Li family to have the advantage of the Jiabing soldiers in the northwest, but also the Central Plains and the entire golden wing to follow Liao and Shenzhou. Infinite resources, even if Apocalypse integrates other states in the Central Plains, I, Mrs. Li, will not be afraid at all."

"What's more, Tianqi still has two thorns in the eyes of the two states of Youyan and King Nanwang and Ningwang. Before they are pulled out, he has no spare power to dare to start the war against me. In this way, we will have There is enough time to integrate the areas we have, and once these areas are completely digested and annexed, I dare to assert here that the world will belong to my Li family if it does not count for a few years!"

Li Qing raised his head, excited, and talked eloquently: "In today's situation, in addition to focusing on internal affairs, our Li family must support Youyan in the confrontation between King Ning and Tianqi in the south, and constantly consume Tianqi's war potential. At the same time, gathering heavy troops in Bingzhou poses a threat to the Tianqi tribe who attacked the land of Youyan. The Jinzhou Department should also take the posture of attacking Qinzhou, so that Qu Yongjie's troops in Qinxing Erzhou cannot fully devote themselves to the war against King Ning in the south. It is possible to prolong the pace of the war between Apocalypse and these two parties, in short, the longer the delay, the better for us."

"After worshiping the ancestors, I will return to Dingzhou to personally command the final battle against the Lu family in the north and start the plan to annex the Zeng family. I estimate that within one to two years, I will complete the battle and annexation of these two places. "

"If everything is as I wish, and all of this is completed, then the ax strategy we formulated will give full play to the greatest advantages, with the entire Golden Wing Three States as the ax blade, and the powerful and favorable handle will provide infinite power for the ax blade , Apocalypse will be defeated!"

"Of course, this is just our wishful thinking, but it's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to God to make things happen. I hope that all uncles will work hard and work together for the brilliant cause of the Li family!"

After Li Qing finished speaking, he bowed to everyone in the hall, returned to his seat and sat down.

Li Huaiyuan stood up: "I think Qing'er has made it very clear that all of Li's actions in the future have only one goal, and in order to achieve this goal, Li must concentrate all his strength. I will never allow any disadvantages. If there is any behavior to achieve this goal, no matter who you are, no matter how high you are in the clan, there is only one destination, and that is, death!"

At four o'clock, Li Qing returned to his residence. Under the faint lights, Qingfeng dressed in light clothes, holding a scroll in his hand, and half-lyed on the bed. Seeing Li Qing pushing the door and entering, Qingfeng stood up with a smile, Li Qing took off his outer robe.

"General, how is it?"

Li Qing smiled and said: "The Li family is now completely in my hands, Qingfeng, you have to be busy next, Li Zonghua will come to visit you tomorrow, and Shadow will be merged into the Statistics and Investigation Department."

Qingfeng frowned slightly, "General, the Statistics and Investigation Department has formed its own system and is functioning well. If you suddenly incorporate Shadow into it at this time, the integration will take a long time, which is not conducive to the operation of the Investigation Department!"

"This is not a problem, it's not a problem, how to do it, it's up to you to decide, Li Zonghua will hand over the entire system of the shadow to you, you can give him the title of deputy director of the investigation department, and he will still be in charge of the shadow .”

"That's good!" Qingfeng laughed.

Looking at the breezy smiling face, Li Qing couldn't help thinking of a conversation he had with An Guogong before breaking up.

"Qing'er, do you really trust Qingfeng unreservedly?"

Li Qing smiled, but did not answer directly: "Grandpa, what do you think?"

Duke An laughed, and wisely stopped asking this question, but said: "Shadow has been merged into the Statistics and Investigation Department, and I have another group of people in my hands, but let them be handed over to you! Li Wen and Li Wu! You two come here Come on! Qing'er, the two of them hold the most secret organization of my Li family. In the Li family, only the patriarch has the right to know and own it. From today on, they are yours!"

Li Qing was not hypocritical, nodded and said: "Thank you, Grandpa, I just happen to be short of manpower. With this group of people, I can do many things freely."
