Chapter 114: Seeing Beauty Again
Xu Shiji was unable to fight, and he tried his best to drag Li Fengyun to Lanling.
This is not a matter of face size, but rather the weight of Xu Shicai in the minds of the Twelve Lady, whether he can win more trust from Cui, and more importantly, his future of Xu's family. Li Fengyun said that the future situation in China and Turkey is very bad, and deduced from the current tense situation, war will surely start again in the future. Once war is in chaos, if the Xu family, as a wealthy businessman, loses their backing and the protection of wealthy families, the consequences will be disastrous.
Li Fengyun had a special relationship with Xu Shiji, and Xu Shisan was very familiar with this relationship. Just like Li Fengyun had treated two unknown local gangsters in Qi County before, she was too good. Xu Shisan secretly told Xu Shiji about the results after careful observation, so that Xu Shiji could not fight, and he would definitely get what he wanted.
As Xu Shisan speculated, Li Fengyun was so upset by Xu Shiji's perseverance that he was so upset that he gritted his teeth and agreed, "Okay! I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman and accompany you for a trip." The implication is that I am just giving you face, not giving Cui's face.
The main force of the rebel army was about to enter Lu County to launch an attack, but the head coach Li Fengyun said he wanted to go to Lanling secretly. Of course, the rebel leaders such as Han Yao and Chen Rui opposed it. What are you doing in Lanling? You always have to give us a reason? Although you are the head coach, you can do whatever you want, there must be a limit, right? The head coach's every move is directly related to the survival of the rebel army. You cannot joke about the lives of thousands of soldiers of the rebel army.
Li Fengyun refused to say it. No other rebel leader knew about his secret contact with Cui's family. As for Xu Shiji, in order to hide his identity, Xu Shisan personally picked him up and dropped him off every time he entered and exited Mengshan. Han Yao, Chen Rui, Yuan An and other rebel leaders knew about this, but they thought that the person who secretly entered the mountain was a secret stake placed by Li Fengyun outside the mountain, so no one cared about it, and would not be bored to investigate it thoroughly. This is true. Xu Shiji did bring a lot of confidential information to the rebel army, thus "confirming" the conjectures of the rebel leaders.
Li Fengyun told Han Yao and others that he went to Lanling because a secret spy outside the mountain sent a confidential news that Cui Deben, the governor of Pengcheng County, arrived in Lanling and there were not many people around him. For this reason, he wanted to go and see it in person. If he had the chance, he would capture Cui Deben alive to see if he could get some "help" from Cui.
Li Fengyun gave the reason, and then ignored Han Yao and others' strong persuasion, he took Fengyun Group away.

After a few months, in a valley with beautiful mountains and rivers outside Lanling City, Li Fengyun and the Twelve Lady of the Cui family met again.
Li Fengyun is no longer the slaughtered prisoner, but has been upgraded to an unforgivable rebel. However, it was this rebel who not only attracted the Twelve Lady who had gritted her teeth and wanted to kill him to the foot of Mengshan Mountain, but also had some secret cooperation with Cui. Of course, it is impossible to determine who was using whom.
The twelve ladies took off the cover and showed their beautiful face, the country's beauty is fragrant, graceful and luxurious, and the beauty of the world.
Li Fengyun still had white hair, and his cold and solemn eyes on his mighty face were still heart-wrenching. The yellow military uniform and black cloak combined with his tall and tough body made him look even more wild and unruly than the prisoners who killed bloodyly on the streets of the White Horse.
Cui Jiu wore a purple robe, and was as quiet as water.
Xu Shiji originally wanted to avoid such occasions. After all, he was just a messenger of Cui. The more secrets he knew, the greater the danger. Besides, he was a merchant, and he was indeed not qualified to stand here, but Li Fengyun seemed to have seen through his thoughts. Just when he was about to move away, he patted his shoulders regardless of slightness. Xu Shiji could not move, and if the Twelve Lady and Cui Jiu ignored him, he had acquiesced to his existence. In fact, it would have increased Xu Shiji's weight. If the weight was heavy, Cui would have given him more trust.
There was no greeting or greeting. In the mountain wind, an elegant but rather cold voice suddenly sounded, "I underestimated you. After a few months, I actually occupied the mountain and became king."
Li Fengyun had no expression on his face and was silent.
"I left my eyes, but I didn't expect you to be a strange person."
The Twelve Lady finally did not call him a thief, but promoted him to a strange man. He has his own personalities, and the Cui family took the initiative to make an appointment, which was understandable, so it was considered to have found a way out for himself.
Li Fengyun still didn't speak.
"I'm here today to ask about my elders." The twelve lady went straight to the point, "Are you sure..."
Li Fengyun immediately shook his hand, "To be honest, I don't know how to do numerology or astrology. What I said all came from an old Taoist in yellow robe. When I was running wildly on Mount Meng and met the Taoist priest in the mountains and ridges, I invited him to drink a pot of good wine and eat a pot of dog meat, and then I heard a few shocking words."
Xu Shiji wanted to laugh, but endured it, and felt so uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, Brother Baihai still kept his bad intentions in the face of the powerful figures of the Cui family, and just opened his mouth and lied. Are you happy with someone?
Cui Jiu's eyes showed a fierce look and his face suddenly looked ugly.
The Twelve Lady didn't care. She shook her head and asked, "Since there are a few shocking words, why not say it?"
"Someone said that there is no hidden danger." Li Fengyun said with a serious expression, "As for whether others believe it or not, it is someone else's business, but someone definitely does not believe it. Although fate is determined by heaven, if everything is left to fate, why does a person still have to live and struggle in the world? So someone thinks that fate must be controlled by himself and fight against heaven and earth. As for success or failure, it is actually not important. What is important is that someone fights unyieldingly. The way of heaven is cruel, and it is even more cruel than the way of heaven!"
Li Fengyun was passionate and imposing.
The Twelve Lady frowned and thoughtful. A hint of admiration appeared in Cui Jiu's eyes. The white-haired thief in front of him was not useless. At least he was ruthless, cruel to the enemy and even more cruel to himself. This was amazing. Xu Shiji was a little dizzy and admired Li Fengyun more and more. Any words he said were completely different. He clearly told the Twelve Lady solemnly that your elders were dead and had no help, but after he said this, they were even more cruel than the Heavenly Dao, which made the Twelve Lady feel so drastically. Who would say that my elders would definitely die? If the Heavenly Dao wanted him to die, I would fight against the Heavenly Dao. Even if his soul returned to the underworld, I would still rescue him from the underworld. The weak were afraid of the ruthless, and the ruthless ones were afraid of the life, and I would even fear whom I was afraid of?
The Twelve Lady thought for a long time, suddenly nodded slightly at Li Fengyun, smiled slightly, and asked, "You have a knife in your hand, but you can fight with the Heavenly Dao, but you are unarmed, how can you fight?"
The Twelve Lady lowered her posture and even showed the intention of asking for advice in her words.
Since Li Fengyun has come and has officially met with important figures of the Cui family, of course he must achieve something. After all, his real purpose is to establish some limited cooperative relationship with the Cui family, the No. 1 wealthy family in China. Although it is very difficult, he always has to work hard. With the strength of the rebel army, even if it develops, becomes strong, or even becomes separatist, it still needs the support of the noble group and the help of the wealthy family. This is undoubtedly the point. For this reason, Li Fengyun has also thought deeply about it. To achieve this goal, the shortcut is the Twelve Lady of the Cui family that he once hostages. If this shortcut is successfully explored, it will have an immeasurable impact on the development of the rebel army. Therefore, Li Fengyun has been thinking on the way to come, what methods can be used to save the decline of the Cui family? How to reverse the fate of the Cui family?
The Twelve Lady lowered her posture and asked for help, and Li Fengyun took the opportunity to express his thoughts. Although he did not want to be a charlatan, since the Twelve Lady regarded him as a charlatan, he could only use his tricks and use it at the same time. Perhaps the results of his thoughts could change the future historical process.
"I have a knife in my hand, and you have an imperial throne in my hand." Li Fengyun said seriously, "It is the imperial throne to defeat, and it is the imperial throne to success, and the key is the imperial throne."
The Twelve Lady remained silent, but her heart was shocking. The white-haired prisoner in front of her was definitely not a high-ranking powerful man in Dongdu, but he hit the key point of Dongdu's politics in one word. This is incredible. Who is he? A young evil thief has the political insights that only high-ranking powerful man has. How is this possible? He must be a talented and strange man, rare in the world. Did the Cui family be blessed by heaven and accidentally picked up the treasure?
Cui Jiu looked shocked. He had a high status and great power in the Cui family, and participated in decision-making. Of course, he knew what kind of close relationship the Cui family had with the imperial regime since the reunification of Middle-earth. He knew that the relationship between the Cui family and the imperial regime was not strange, but a rebellious evil thief could even tell the secrets in one word. At this moment, the weight of the white-haired prisoner in his mind rose sharply. Such a strange person, the Cui family must not miss it.
"Imperial Order?" The twelve ladies pondered and thought.
The imperial dynasty was always a nightmare. When the late emperor was alive, he did not deal with the imperial dynasty issue well. As a result, father and son were killed and brothers fought against each other, and a tragedy of human relations was staged. The Chinese rich and noble and bureaucrats were countless. The Cui family declined because of the imperial dynasty issue.
After the Supreme Emperor inherited the Grand Priesthood, the nightmare of the imperial throne was not only the same as before, but also better than the previous dynasty. The crown prince died after only one year of reign, and then the Eastern Palace lost his master. However, the Supreme Emperor looked forward to the matter of the crown prince, hesitated and delayed again and again. In name, it was because of the vivid bloody lessons of purpose and needed to be cautious, but in fact it was to speed up the process of reform.
Reform requires a high concentration of imperial power, absolute authority, and the need to minimize political constraints. However, the Eastern Palace is the largest political force that constrains imperial power. Once this political force is used or even controlled by conservatives who oppose reform, it will inevitably hinder reform. Behind the struggle between the imperial unification of the late emperors was actually the battle between reform and conservative, which was a fierce battle between the centralized system and the politics of aristocratic families.
Today, I have learned the lesson and learned to be smart. Since the prince unfortunately died, it is just right that I will not establish a crown prince for the time being. Although this will intensify the fierceness of the dispute over the imperial reign and involve all princes and grandchildren in the dispute over the imperial reign, it will also split and divide the aristocratic groups and political forces that have joined the dispute over the imperial reign. This political situation in the Eastern Capital is obviously beneficial to reform, but it is not conducive to political stability. The political situation and political storms are constantly increasing, which will directly affect the reform process. Therefore, the emperor's strategy of not establishing a crown prince is a double-edged sword, which will hurt others, and will also hurt the country's fortune.
